isn’t doing it fast (or more, not slow) a good thing, because then you get heaps of time to make sure you didn’t make any silly mistakes?
Yes, this is a fine strategy if you can do it. “Ethan Pham” did not get a state rank so take their advice with a grain of salt.

In my opinion, you should be checking as you do the test (i.e if it's a question that involves calculating values, check it with a calculator and add a tick on the question to indicate that you don't have to check that question), with this method you should have 30 mins left (definitiely not more than an hour), in which case you can either go back to questions you couldn't do or check MCQ (MCQ is usually where a lot of silly mistakes will happen)

that’s fair! yeah MCQ is the same for me, especially since i like to use my reading time answering them in my head so i can do them faster and save time for harder questions.
