What to do with extra time.

Test Preparation SAT Preparation

<p>I've always worked fast. Since I was a kid I had the problem of making silly mistakes.
Now that I've arrived at the SAT being forewarned of running out of time... I probably subconsciously worked even faster. </p>

<p>In regards to math:
Math sections if I don't know how to do a problem I won't get it. I normally "finish" the section with 40% of time remaining, and spend the rest going over the work step by step of each problem. The problems I don't know how to do I leave and then go back to (normally 1-2 tops). Those I figure out later from answer explanations, no biggie.</p>

<p>In regards to writing:
Essay aside, the writing portion seems to finish with slightly less time left, but still I'd say on average 30% remaining. I have no clue what to do except review the questions. The sentence error ones im almost afraid to go back to for fear of switching between No Error and an Error. I flip flop too much. Any ideas?</p>

<p>In regards to CR:
This is where it gets tough. I also finish with about 40% of time left. What do I do with the extra time? For CR I don't find myself with "hard" questions and when I "finish" I almost always have an answer for every question. What do I do with the extra time? Any thoughts?
Thanks guys!</p>

<p>What to do with extra time:
Check and double check your work. It’s tempting to just stare off into space and relax, but don’t do it until you’ve gone over everything again, especially the harder problems. Make sure that you’ve bubbled in your answers correctly (especially if this has been an issue before).
Figure out when the next break is and decide what you’ll do during it (sharpen pencils, drink water, eat snacks, use the restroom, etc). The five minute breaks go by so fast; you don’t want to have to run back to the testing room at the last second!
After that, feel free to chill. XD</p>
