"ROOT" hoping not to see those words on my mid-term after tomorrow.....I totally agree with what you have said, I usually try to start at the back of the exam and work my way to the front or alternate by doing a hard question first then maybe two easy ones and then back to the harder ones just to give my brain a rest (weird maybe but works for me)..I'm going to try my best for your mid-term tomorrow to manage my time wisely and maybe use your secret weapon at the beginning.

Although this advice may seem simple,I'm speaking from experience when I say always read the instructions carefully! By being so focused on the content of what I had studied, I missed the part that said "answer 1 of 2" and instead answered both.Through the exam I was stressed about time,and I didn't receive the highest mark possible since only the1st question was marked even though the 2nd was the best answer.Don't make my simple but BIG mistake on your next exam!
make short form points in the margin - you can use that for reference in laying out the sentences, AND, if you run out of time, the prof may give you part marks cause they could see briefly what you were about to write
According to our teachers and examiners, it is said that "When You Start Writing An Answer, Make Sure You've Got A Conclusion" . So, there is no way of stopping an answer in the middle and start writing a new one.
However, I left out 3 Questions worth of 15 marks (our of 100) last year just because of insufficient time. :-( But, I still managed to get a total of 77 Marks!
Can you advise me a little more about resolving my problem! :-)
