Finishing the Section with Confidence

Keep an eye on the clock! Don’t spend too long on any one question—if you’re stuck, mark it and move on. When guessing, eliminate obviously wrong answers first. Trust your instincts, and remember, every question is worth the same points, so focus on getting as many as you can.

Examples

  • Quickly moving past a tough circuit question to return later.

  • Guessing between two choices after eliminating the other two.
