Hi, can anyone recommend a good attempt strategy for Quants? There are always a good deal of questions that I can do but I get confused whether to see all questions and mark them/ or attempt what I know as I go (this approach takes a lot of time). Can someone share their strategy to maximise the score?

Hi
In Quants the best strategy to increase your attempts is to first attempt all the sitters in the first 15 or 20 minutes , these should be attempted from all the topics which you have covered, and in the next 15 minutes you should go for moderate to difficult level questions from the areas that are your strengths for example if you like TSD and Work you should attempt them .And in the last 10 minutes you should try to attempt the remaining questions. Just try to make sure you are not leaving any easy question and not making mistakes in the topics which are your strength.

Look at the question, predict the time it will take(or if it's something unknown to me) and then decide if I want to attempt it. This comes with practice, I can make this decision in one read of the questions...sometimes my judgement is correct, sometimes it isn't....With every wrong judgement I learn what types of questions I have a better chance to crack and what type of question I struggle with...<br><br>One more thing I do is, attempt the 1 minute solution type questions first(Usually the simple questions scattered around the paper) and then move on to the tougher questions after I have gone through the paper once.<br>
