Looking for some help here...
Little bit of background: I have always been a "fast" test taker, not on purpose it just is what it is, on in class exams I go through the entire exam twice normally just to double check.
I have been studying for the mcat for a couple months now, test is in January, and one of my biggest problems is that I feel like I am not using my time efficiently. I changed my verbal strategy to take notes after each paragraph and summarize at the end (little short notes) and slowed down on going from finishing in under 45minutes to taking almost the entire time and my score did increase.
For my bio/chem I typically finish in about 50minutes, for psych I typically have gone through in 30minutes. I feel like it is a stupid question and really just looking for any strategies people have used to utilize the whole time. I kind of feel like I am short changing my self leaving so much time on the table but not sure how to change it besides just trying to take notes on everything as I go?
(my practice test are nothing exceptional low 500's, all below 510 so really not bragging genuinely need help)
