Hey everyone!!

I'm currently scoring a 147 on my practice tests (im working on it!!!). When I blind review my tests, I consistently score above 157. I think my main issue on the actual test is timing; I often get stuck between two answers, overthink the choices, and usually end up picking the wrong one.

Anyone have any advice on how to perform better on the first attempt or how to address timing issues?

    I would use the disprove method (maybe untimed) until you're consistently getting the questions right. For every question, make sure you understand why every other AC is incorrect. I used to think timing was my main problem (and though it is still a problem), my accuracy was actually not up to par. If you take it fully untimed, are you still ending up with two ACs left? There is only one right answer, so if you really scrutinize the ACs, I think you'll get to the right one. If you still can't, I think maybe a refresher of the core curriculum might help. You absolutely got this!!!

    i was stuck here for so long! So I'll tell you something that my mentor and tutor told me: you have to know what it feels like to pick the right answer. I was consistantly chosing between the right answer and the trap. with enough practice (and his guidance) I started to trust my instincts, but I had to also build "bumbers" that help me if I am not sure! Feel free to ask any questions!
