How can I manage my time effectively during the SAT?
Use the built-in timer to keep track of how long you spend on each question. Aim to spend about 1 minute per question in Reading and Writing, and about 1.5 minutes per Math question. Mark tough questions to revisit later.
What tools should I use in the Reading and Writing section?
Use the highlighting and annotation tools to mark important parts of passages and make notes. This helps you keep track of key details and answer questions more effectively.
Should I look for patterns in answer choices?
No, answer choices can be random. Instead of guessing based on patterns, use the option eliminator tool to cross out incorrect answers and narrow down your choices.
Is it important to answer every question?
Yes, always attempt every question. There’s no penalty for wrong answers, so guessing is better than leaving a question blank.
Can I move between questions within a section?
Yes, you can navigate freely within each section. If you’re stuck on a question, move on and return to it later.
