<p>It's simple enough--nothing groundbreaking at all here. But I found that by using more time to read the passages I feel ten times more comfortable answering questions more quickly. I think it is much more expedient to read carefully first and plow through the questions. Although this sounds dangerous--it's much better than reading the questions and frantically looking up answers, making you uncertain of what you picked. That means spending 2-3 minutes on the passages not jus quickly skimming them.</p>
<p>thats a good strategy, one that i tried using on practice tests but failed miserably haha. what i usually do is skim halfway throught he passage, and underline while i'm skimming. then, i answer the questions i can POE my way through easily. DONT go in number order. then, i skim the rest of the passage and answer the rest of the questions. :)
its all about finding the strategey that works right for you
good luck!</p>
<p>i use that strategy. if i try to skim/skip the passage answering the questions is a NIGHTMARE! plus, sometimes the stuff in there is kind of interesting :P</p>
<p>hahahaha exactly how i feel. well, more like 90% boring, but hey that last 10% that's reasonably interesting can really work wonders. on the June SAT there was a story about a guy who did all his traveling on motercycles. i thought that one was kind of interesting...</p>
