Explain it in your own words
Use the answer as a check after you have written or spoken your response.
01How would you divide a four-week review schedule?
Give each section an early diagnostic, spend more sessions on missed subareas, and finish with timed mixed sets.
02Why should pacing practice match section limits?
The clock resets by section, so a workable pace in one area may be too slow in another.
03Why are unanswered items costly?
An unanswered item cannot earn credit, so a final time check should leave room to record a response.
04How should a student use an incorrect answer?
Name the error type, repair the rule or method, then answer a parallel item without looking.
05Why should mixed-format practice include more than multiple choice?
The exam also uses multiple select, fill-in-the-blank, ordered response, and hot-spot items.
