Hi, I took a practice test approx 2 weeks ago. My scores were 8, 7, and 7. I should know most of the material I have been studying for four months however I notice when I am close to finishing I have to rush to finish the last two passage in each section. Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this? That is approx 36 questions left to guessing. All advice is greatly appreciated.

I had that problem too. Try answering all of the discrete questions first then do the passage based questions last. (for PS and BS) For VR, just keep on practicing.

I would figure out what is slowing you down. Remember, if you are spending tons of time on isolated questions, the ones that are easier for you are worth the same as the ones you have to drudge through. So, guess on those, make a note on which ones they are, and come back when you finish the section.

For VR, I think ExamKrackers has a pretty good tutorial for how to get through that section.

For starters, this is why you need to take lots of timed practice tests...you will get better with the timing.

I agree, you need to guess and move on.
