noging --> going too fast can but just as much of a score killer. I tend to make lots of silly errors if I go too fast - which hurt my score pretty bad (ok maybe not as bad as say missing a few questions, but pretty bad all the same).

I agree 100%. They both can really hurt your score, but I've personally found that running out of time at the end can really hurt because you start to miss questions you normally would have gotten or you miss them entirely.

If I rush, I might get a few wrong that were 750 level questions that I might have gotten right if took another minute to attempt, but when I run out of time, I usually get a number wrong in a row, which means I'm getting 700, 600 and 500 level questions wrong, which seems to REALLY bring my score down.
