Time Management on Exam Day

Making the Most of Your Exam Time

Managing your time during the certification exam is crucial. Start by quickly scanning the entire test to get a feel for question types and difficulty levels. Answer the easiest questions first to build confidence, then return to tougher questions. Don’t spend too long on any one item—mark it, move on, and return if you have time. Use any remaining minutes to review your work for mistakes.

Examples

  • Skipping long scenarios at first and answering quick multiple-choice questions.

  • Setting a timer for each section to stay on track.
