Can anyone give me some insight in regards to bubbling? In lr, do you bubble at the end or as you go? Same with lg and rc, thanks

I bubble two pages at a time in LR, one game at a time in LG, and one passage at a time in RC.

With the exception of bubbling answer by answer after 5 minutes is called in a section to ensure you do not leave some correct answers in the test booklet instead of on the answer sheet.

That's a good point. On the last page/game/passage I reach a point where I bubble each question as I go if I'm not finished early.

I bubbled 2 pages at a time (before flipped onto next 2 pages for every section)

With 5 minutes left I bubbled after every question

Does no one bubble after every question? I've only done PTs but I would be too nervous that I was going to make a colossal mistake if I bubbled two pages at a time.

I get that. But it is incredibly inefficient to bubble after every question and, I think, also interrupts your flow of answering questions. To combat this fear, I would actually write the letter of the answer I chose to the side of the question and circle it. Thus, when I went back to fill in my answer grid, I would see my answer instead of just seeing a circle on a page.

To each his own though. If you are doing well and feel comfortable with your method, there is no reason not to stick with it.

I bubbled after every question, never had to worry about making a mistake, and did fine in terms of time. Meh.
