I hear you! I'm doing well on the first ten questions but when it get's Hard I continue to take my time and suffer at the end (guessing the last 7 or so). So take calculated guesses on the quesions that I'm not good at (probability, geometry)?

I assume verbal's the same way, make sure you get the first ones right?

Yes yes!!!

If your goal is not to score 700+ you should use the strategy discussed above. It is so advantageous for you to aim 550-600. Why spend 3 minutes on a permutation problem you probably won't get right, when you can guess in 20 seconds, and spend 5 minutes on the next problem.

Take care with the first few questions. Same with verbal. You'll almost certainly start with a SC or two. Take your time, get it right. On the reading comp questions, pay close attention to general/specific questions. Those are easy b/c you only need to know the framework of the passage and can always look back to the passage. Inference questions require you to understand the passage. Those are the more difficult ones.

Good luck
