Master the skills to understand, analyze, and interpret reading passages on the PSAT.
The PSAT is timed, so you need to keep an eye on the clock! Don’t get stuck on a tough question—instead, move on and come back if you have time. Skim passages first to get a general idea before diving into questions, and budget your time for each passage.
Staying calm and pacing yourself ensures that you answer as many questions as possible and avoid last-minute rushing.
Spend about one minute per multiple-choice question.
Mark tricky questions and return to them after finishing the rest.
