Does rapid glance work for these angles?

The only area of PAT I am struggling on is angle ranking. I am doing the DAT Bootcamp generator trying to find the best technique.

Does the rapid eye/glance technique work for angles like this? They are positioned so differently that I am not sure if it is good to use here.

I would say yes. On my DAT i did the "rapid eye/glance" method and scored pretty well. you really don't have time to switch between methods. I'd say stick with one method. btw this is likely one of the harder ones you might encounter.

Can you explain how you would do it for these? Where exactly are you looking on the lines when you glance back and forth. (p.s. HTTR)

For angles like these, I'd rotate my head so #3 is in the same orientation as #4 and compare the distance between the two lines at the vertex. Rapid eye technique doesn't work quite as well for me here.

Is 4 larger than 3?

Angle ranking is honestly hit or miss.

I've spent so much time on the angle generators and I honestly don't even know anymore. It's torture looking at these 😉

Practice makes perfect! [emoji1] I remember back in Feb when I first started. I look at angles first. See which ones the largest and the smallest. (Fatter V's larger! ) or I had an imaginary parallel line for obtuse angles, to determine which one was larger (of course flatter is larger) probably sounds confusing but it works for me. But you really do train your eyes =] little at a time don't overwhelm yourself.
