I've taken 4 practice AAMC's so far, and I always mess up my timing for PS and BS. I usually write down something concrete before I take the test, so that I give myself 8 min/passage.
For example, at the top of my sheet, I'll write:
end of pass 2: 1:02 min left
3: 54 min
4: 46 min
5: 38 min
6: 30 min
7: 22 min
discrete: 14 min
discrete 6 min
But sometimes while I'm taking the test, this really confuses me because there will be discretes thrown in between passages, and they're not always as long as the passage questions, so then I end up getting behind...
It's easy timing VB because it's all passages, but how do you all make a timing plan for the sciences? Help!
