RC -- Booklet vs stapled papers --> Timing issues?

The actual test is in booklet form right? Meaning the passage and all of the corresponding questions are on a flat 2 page display for you? Some of my timing issues stem from specific inference questions that require me to flip back and forth between pages that are stapled together. How much does having the pages side by side help you timing wise?

Yes, and don't forget the timeless art of trying to staple a prep test together without spoiling the location of the sections. And then trying to forget if you do.

Dude so true. Also, if I see an answer on the answer key, it is like my brain and I are fighting... My brain is trying to hone in on exactly the test, section, and question number and I am trying to forget it. Some Freudian shit right there

I guess for RC this would make a slight difference. I have a lot of stapled test but I also have a few in booklet form and I could see how that would change things slightly as far as retention of information goes.

All my tests = booklets. Took me 3 hours and I realized I wasted over 20 bucks in ink but w.e.

Being able to see the passage and ques. without having to flip over the page may be the key to saving me the minute or two that I need so badly
