    Thanks for the video! Teaching premeds on overall MCAT strategies and I remember doing this when I took the MCAT in 2019 (514), now about to graduate medical school and I did this with the STEP exams, essentially triaging any hard looking question (since they're all discretes, no passages basically) to the end, and doing the easier ones first. I think I learned this strategy from kaplan in 2018? I'll be sending this out to them

      So glad you enjoyed the video and congratulations on being nearly done medical school! Where are you teaching premeds right now?

    Do you offer a course that isn’t live?

      We're currently building one! I want it to be the best one there is, which means I expect it to be ready at the beginning of 2025.
      I also record every lesson in the live course so if students have scheduling conflicts, they are able to go back and watch what they missed. When are you planning on taking your MCAT?

    Should I actually do that on test day? Or just when I am practicing for the test? Seems like scam through all the questions would take me time that I already don’t have

      Yes - this is the strategy I used on my own test day and encourage most of my students to use! I know it can feel like you don't have the time to go through the section at the beginning, but my student data has shown that taking 1-2 minutes to reorder translates to increased scores, which makes that time worth it!
      This is because you are taking the time to make sure you get your "guaranteed" points answered first, so even if you do run out of time on a section, you're only guessing on your 'hard' questions that you are more likely to get wrong anyway. I talk about this more towards the end of this video!
      One caveat: this skill definitely takes practice to do accurately and efficiently! I would not recommend doing this for the first time on your real exam; try to practice it on 3-4 tests before the real thing. Hope this helps!
