8. '''Do the easy questions first'''. Some questions will be easier for you to do than others. These questions are the ones that you are most likely to answer correctly. Get them out of the way and make sure they are answered. If you have to leave questions blank, make sure they are not the ones you could have done if you had simply looked for a moment.
9. '''Know the difficulty level of the questions and choose answers accordingly'''. If questions are arranged in increasing order of difficulty, as on the SAT, you know whether a question should have an easy answer or a difficult answer. The first questions shouldn't take much time or effort, while the last questions should.
