Hey guys,

Are the science questions seperated by category (Bio, chem, ochem)? Or all they all scrambled into one continuous section?

Actually, a screen comes up and tells you that you are entering the next section. So the order is
1)"Survey of sciences tutorial"
2)"Now starting biology"
3)40 bio questions
4)"Now starting chemistry"
5)30 chemistry questions
6)"Now starting organic"
7)30 organic questions
8)Happiness

Easy with the sarcasm there, this forum isn't a medium for mocking people who you think ask trivial questions. Either contribute something meaningful, or keep your snarky comments to yourself.

I think you may have misunderstood my post.. I wasn't trying to mock anyone, I was just giving you the most thorough answer so you know what to expect. What I posted is the real structure of the test. Sorry if it came across as rude.

Oh LOL, I got confused because the previous post said something different, which I now get is wrong. Thanks and I apologize for the misunderstanding 🙁

And you can go back through it all correct? So if I take 20 minutes for Bio instead of 30, I can use that extra time for the other two sections?

Yes you can use the extra time for the other sections. Just think it as 90 minutes for all of bio,chem,orgo

Thanks! Another question I had was does the next section start automatically? For BC Full length tests, there is always a "begin now" button and I wasn't sure if that would be there between science/ PAT and RC/QR

Thanks guys, I have a question if anyone recommends, I heard its better to do bio, then organic then general chemistry since its a lot of time consuming, does anyone tried that? I don't think its easy to skip the questions and jump around?
