Timing is everything In SAT/ACT Exam...


Timing is everything
  • The actual time of the test is 3 hours and 45 minutes, plus 3 brakes of 5-minutes, which makes it total 4 hours to complete the entire test.
  • Can’t spend too much time on any one question.
    • Spend seconds on the easiest questions.
    • Hesitate to spend more than 1-2 minutes even on the hardest questions.
  • The SAT consists of a series of small, timed, mini-tests.
    • Students must keep track of the time allotted for each one and how much time remains.
  • Test takers should wear a watch to the testing center.
