Use short methods for numeracy (approximation, simplification) and build a quick DI routine for reading graphs/tables efficiently. For comprehension and communication, practice spotting the “main idea” and eliminating distractors before selecting answers. Finally, attempt full-length mock runs of 120 minutes to develop exam-day pacing.
