Study Strategies
## Beat the Clock and Boost Your Score
Managing your time on the SSAT is key to answering every question.
-
Check how many passages and questions you have.
- Spend about 2-3 minutes reading each passage, and about 1 minute per question.
- Don’t get stuck! If a question is too hard, skip it and come back later.
## Why It
Works
Good time management helps you stay calm and finish the test without rushing.
Examples
- Setting a timer during practice to get used to the pace.
- Marking difficult questions to return to after finishing the easier ones.
