Time Management Tricks

Make Every Second Count

Pacing yourself is key in the ISEE Verbal Reasoning section. You have a limited time, so learn to move efficiently through questions.

  • Don’t get stuck on one tough question—move on and come back if there’s time.
  • Use your watch or the clock to keep track.
  • Answer easy questions first to build confidence.

Finishing on time means you can check your answers and catch mistakes!

Examples

  • Skipping a hard question and coming back after finishing the rest.

  • Setting mini-goals, like answering five questions every five minutes.
