  5. The SAT: Test-Taking Techniques • Answer easy questions first. Mark skipped questions in your exam book so you can quickly return to them later. • Easy questions usually precede hard ones. • Don't spend too much time on any one question. You should spend only seconds on the easiest questions, and hesitate to spend more than 1-2 minutes on even the hardest ones. • You can write in the test book: cross out wrong answers. • Guess...if you can eliminate at least one choice. You are MUCH more likely to get a question rightif you eliminate one answer.

  6. Writing Portion: • Length matters! The SAT Graders want you to fill up the space you are given. • Remember to write clearly. • Indent. • Write four-five paragraphs on the prompt. No ex-boyfriend stories.
