<p>Which technique do you use and why?</p>
<p>Circle answer in the booklet while bubbling problem by problem. I am petrified of mass bubbling because the chance of error seems way too high, and 1 error in a mass bubble will destroy your entire score.</p>
<p>For CR, I’ve heard the best strategy is to bubble in 5 or so of the sentence completions at a time and then bubble in all of the specific questions pertaining to a passage at once.
But honestly, if you’re not careless, an adaptation in bubbling technique won’t matter…</p>
<p>Dull your pencil (so it takes less time to bubble) and circle on the booklet and bubble semi-neatly as you go. If you have any time left over in any particular section and you don’t want to check, go back and make all your bubbles a bit darker/neater.</p>
<p>Le done.</p>
<p>Circle in booklet. Bubble after every passage (on CR) or page (for M and W).</p>
<p>I don’t see why you shouldn’t? It’s not like your wasting"valuable" time circling. I mean it doesn’t have to be a prefect circle.</p>
<p>Yeah, sorry, but com’on, think about regular non-SAT testing… Do you circle?</p>
<p>i just dont fill in the bubbles on the scantron at all. it’s a waste of time</p>
<p>In practice, I never bubble. Why practice a skill I’ve been mastering my entire life? </p>
<p>In the real test, I bubble as I go. Too afraid of time being called and not having the answers bubbled.</p>
<p>I bubble just to be more realistic…</p>
<p>Although it is probably a minor thing, bubbling on at least one practice test isn’t a bad idea. Even if you take only 3-4 seconds to bubble each answer, that is about a minute of extra time on a section that you won’t have on the real thing.</p>
