<p>Is it just me, or does everyone finish the 25-minute Math sections 5-15 minutes early?</p>
<p>What do you do in that spare time? Think the proctor will notice if I flip back to my essay? :D Or should I just re-check my answers?? That's just boring.</p>
<p>No, I never finish math early. It's the only section during which I almost run out of time.</p>
<p>If you have so much spare time, just double-check your answers. If you think it's so boring, just relax and close your eyes or something until the proctor says it's time for the next section.</p>
<p>I finished a math section in five minutes once. Went through for a second pass and wound up finding 3 errors. Imagine if I'd just handed it in? </p>
<p>Looking at your essay is against the rules. Check over your math -- don't let your ego get the best of you.</p>
<p>that shows that ure pretty good at math..i wouldn't take the risk of looking back to a previous section but as long as your proctor is dull and motionless and you sit in the back, why not?</p>
<p>I could race through in under 10 minutes, but I tend to take about 20, purposely slowing myself so I don't do anything stupid. And the remaining 5 minutes are sufficient to double check</p>
<p>long ago,i would rush through everything, finish in like 10-13~mins ,but make alot of stupid mistakes.
now i take my time, read carefully, try diff methods when in doubt, and move on. even with such meticulousness, i usually still end up have 5ish mins left over, i use those time to go over the ones i circled, indicating doubt/confusions.</p>
<p>that's a bad idea; going back to an essay`~~ although i dont support this,lol, at least go back to the MC's , not the essay~ too obvious i guess</p>
<p>i also usually finish 5 mins early or more. but i don't like to check my answers. and i always make many careless mistakes, so that's why i could never get an 800 on math. =(</p>
<p>yea, i know i could. but it's just a bad habit that i carried from elementary and middle schools. and i still don't check my answers after finishing any quizzes or tests early. =(</p>
<p>I could probably finish each math section like 10 minutes early, but I usually force myself to go over each problem twice as I do them to make sure that I dont make stupid careless mistakes...but even then I sitll do</p>
<p>There are people that take longer than 5 minutes on a math section? I tried going slow once and I still finished in like 7 minutes.</p>
<p>But seriously though, the math sections are ridiculously easy. I usually just close my eyes and try to sleep. 15 minute naps are always good. I can never bring myself to double check my answers because it is so boring.</p>
<p>^ 5 minutes? isn't that a bit too long? I mean imo 3 minutes is slow enough but yeah I tried doing it retarded speed (really really really slowly) once and it took me 4 minutes</p>
