Re: How many were guesses?
I didn't really count. I think like only a couple on one of my logic reasoning sections, but I don't even remember if I guessed or felt confident about it. You know when you answer A for a question and you know time is running out, so you don't take the time to read the rest? About the best way to guarantee you are wrong, but I had a couple of those. Every now and then, though, it really is A.
I guessed on a couple at the end of RC, although I actually read each question, I just circled the first one that seemed to make sense to me.
LG, I realized I had a wrong answer circled right before time. Not much I could do about that.

Re: How many were guesses?
Dun wanna hijack the thread. Is lack of time the issue here? "Ideally" you wouldn't have to guess.

Yeah I guessed from lack of time except that lr question I narrowed it down to two and had a hard time picking oneibopm wrote:Dun wanna hijack the thread. Is lack of time the issue here? "Ideally" you wouldn't have to guess.

As complete guesses? Only 2 on LR. I had to rush through the last RC but I was able to answer every question... but not at optimal accuracy probably.

Re: How many were guesses?
Yeah i dont know if i should cancel my score or not because i guesssed on all of these from lack of time. Maybe i am ExaggeraTing and i guessed on maybe three less than i posted previously. I really just dont know. Saturday just felt like a major blur. The test for me goes by so fast. I really wish i could go take another test tomorrow because i dont have a problem with the test itself it is just the anxiety before and after the test that kills me. The unknown is what sucks.

Re: How many were guesses?
Do you know why you ran out of time? For me it was because I was taking extra long on each problem to be extra careful. I was trying to make sure I didn't make careless mistakes. I am hoping the extra time spent would have increased my accuracy thereby offsetting the amount I guessed on.Deuce85 wrote:Yeah i dont know if i should cancel my score or not because i guesssed on all of these from lack of time.

Re: How many were guesses?
LG- last 4
RC-2 questions were skimmed and while I didn't comprehend all the ACs I chose the one that was most intuitively salient. 2 more were pure guesses. I looked over my scantron and saw that D was underbubbled lol.
LR~3
LR-3 (I educatedly guessed on the question about color paper vs paint; westnile virus and mosquitos; and the wolves and dog which I'm fairly confident was right.)

Re: How many were guesses?
I guessed on two LR questions.
One of the guesses was due to my cavalier attitude about the question spurred by a 5-hour energy.

Re: How many were guesses?
I feel like I had reason to select every answer but question 15 on logic games. And that was because I skipped it and forgot to go back until too late.
