If you’ve started to answer a question but get confused, quit and go on to the next question.
Persistence might pay off in high school, but it usually hurts your SAT subject test scores. Don’t
spend so much time answering one hard question that you use up three or four questions’ worth of
time. That’ll cost you points, especially if you don’t even get the hard question right.
LEAP AHEAD
You should do the questions in the order that’s best for you. Don’t pass up the opportunity
to score easy points by wasting time on hard questions. Skip hard questions until you’ve
gone through every question once. Come back to them later.
