Any help with my analysis would be very helpful. Thank you ahead of time!!
I was an idiot and decided to take the test at Borders which created some distractions.
This is the 2nd time that I've taken the Quant section of the test. I did the 2 essays before the quant and stopped @ the quant due to the borders internet being unreliable/ me getting really pissed off that I only finished 20 questions on the quant. My brain completely died at around 15 questions and I found myself re-reading the question multiple times.
Right now I am having problems finishing all of the test in time. I believe that I have to do the following to be able to finish the test and raise my score.
1) Keep notice every 5 questions to make sure I'm staying around 10 minutes per set of 5 (especially on the difficult ones)
2) Miss the questions I got "stuck" on faster. The top 5 questions that I spent the most time on are as follows:
Question # / Time Spent on Question: Question difficulty: Result
#19 / 8:52 / 700 - 800 / Incorrect
#16 / 7:16 / 700 - 800 / Incorrect
# 11 / 4:18 / 600-700 / Correct
#10 / 4:05 / 600-700 / Incorrect
#5 / 3:46 / 600-700/ Incorrect
3) It looks like I went on what poker players would call "tilt" towards the end. I got really frustrated that I was running out of time and ended up wasting more time than I had already in questions 16 and 19 I went way overboard on time.
