Having never taken a section yet, I was wondering, what are your strategies for the MCQ’s on the actual exam?
I see the potential options (with sub-options) as follows:
1. “Cherry-pick”
a. Answer conceptual problems first then go back and do the calculation problems, or
b. Vice versa: calculation problems first then conceptual
2. Sequentially
a. Fill in an answer for all problems, in order, no matter what, or
b. Skip/flag those you can’t get right away and go back
Lastly, regardless of the methodology employed, once you have an answer selected for all questions, do you go back and review before continuing to the next set or do you “trust your gut”?
The closer I get to D-Day, I’d like to have a plan of attack. I’m thinking that making a pass through, and being able to knock out some conceptual problems first, may help build my confidence (so Cherry-pick (a.)).
