    Ya I heard that about S2. I think I could improve greatly in S1 because I guessed about 11 questions on the day in that section. Always struggle time wise in S1. How was your timing actually and do you remember roughly how many questions you guessed?

    Thanks very much and best of luck in lc results!

    OMG timing is so cruel.

    Man tbh i remember guessing a lot of questions. Even in S3 i guessed so much! So even i dont know what the magical formula for timing is.

    When practicing hpat, i realised that some guessing is necessary for a good score. Its weird but honestly the days when i used to guess around 5-10 qs and spend a reasonable time on answering the others qs right I would get a better score (on the real day too) than when I tried to answer all qs!

    It seems that the trick is picking and choosing your battles (& questions) and not to spend a lot of time on impossible qs. I think the second time I mastered that skill better than when I did the hpat the first time.

    For s2 learning, some essential vocab was the only way i brought my score a bit higher ( but only learning words will not drastically change your score, only improve it)
