No penalty for guessing. Eliminate obviously wrong options first, then pick your best answer.

Flag and return

If a question stumps you, flag it, move on, and come back with fresh eyes.

Watch the clock

Keep track of time. Spending too long on one question risks not finishing.

Read carefully

Many marks are lost by misreading. Take 5 extra seconds to read each question twice.
