Time Management on the PSAT

Staying on Track

The PSAT is a timed test, so it's important to pace yourself and not get stuck on tough questions. Divide your time evenly, skip questions you find too hard at first, and return to them later. Practice with timed quizzes to build your speed and confidence.

Tips for Success

  • Use your watch to keep track of time.
  • Don't spend more than a minute on any one question at first pass.
  • Bubble in answers as you go to avoid rushing at the end.

Examples

  • Answering all the easy questions first, then using leftover time for the harder ones.

  • Practicing with a timer to simulate real test conditions.
