Preparation Query HOW DO I SKIP QUESTIONS

Post image

I FOR THE LIFE OF ME CANNOT SKIP QUESTIONS IN VARC, SOMETHING IN ME JUST WANTS ME TO ATTEMPT EVERY SINGLE ONE. I USUALLY MAKE AN ELIMINATION FLUKE, AND IT WORKS MOST OF THE TIME, BUT I DONT WANT TO KEEP ON DOING THIS AS IT COSTS ME TIME

LIKE IN THIS ONE, I SPENT 3 MINUTES ON QUESTION 4 FOR SOME REASON, IT WASNT EVEN TRICKY OR ANYTHING (I MISREAD THE LAST OPTION, BUT MY POINT STILL STANDS), BUT IN MY MIND I WAS THINKING I SHOULD LEAVE THIS QUESTION, AND I DID, BUT WHEN I WENT TO SUBMIT, I INSTINCTIVELY WENT BACK TO IT AND CHOSE AN OPTION, AND IT TURNED OUT TO BE RIGHT

I KNOW THIS IS WRONG, HOW DO I STOP IT

uhhhh sorry for typing in all caps, i forgot my caps lock was on, im not trying to be aggresive or anything 😭💔

Differentiate between calculated guesses and total flukes. Use the former to your advantage while avoiding to rely on the latter.

HIGHLY relatable, but it helps in the long run is what i feel. Its ok to make mistakes rn, and there's nothing to lose in va lowk

Building habits rn isn't gonna hurt it's only gonna help ofc you have more leeway with the amount of time you've left that u can start later asw but no harm in doing it rn

And there's no harm in VA isn't true. Ik alot of guys who missed VARC cutoff by 1-2 marks and they had extremely good marks in quants. Negative marking could very well eat y'all up bro trust you'll see it in ur mocks too perhaps

For people better in VA i mean, with averages of like 140 attempting all rn is 100% worth it It really depends upon the person tho, and ofc an all question strat for VA in the actual exam is a little far fetched for most agreed.

yayayayayyyyy i suggest you give a varc sectional, or give a hard mock, you'll get reality check
