Time Management

Managing Your Time on the Test

It’s important to keep track of time so you can answer every question. Don’t spend too long on one question—if you’re stuck, move on and come back if you have time!

How to Practice

  • Use a timer while practicing.
  • Skip questions that are too hard and return later.
  • Check your answers if you finish early.

Examples

  • Setting a timer when practicing at home to get used to the pace.

  • Skipping a tough question and returning to it after finishing the rest of the section.
