1. Go all the way thru the test, select B for any answer you don’t know.  Skipping all hard questions. Do not waste any time yet, on these.

2. As you go along, record each of the questions you skipped in two columns.  One marked quick, the other marked detailed.

3.  It should take you 1 hour to complete the test.  Now you can take the next 2 hours to complete the detailed time consuming math problems.   Also note:  If the question is long and full of smoke, select B and move on.  90% chance it will be B and it was there to waste time.

Life has been good otherwise.   Check out a recent video I recorded on using a free tool to dramatically speed up your Craigslist searching.  http://www.viddler.com/explore/socialmarketing/videos/1/
