When to Gamble - Guessing

Occasionally, guessing on a critical reading or critical writing question is a good idea. Most of the time if one or more answer choices can be eliminated, it is a good idea to guess. As the answer choices are eliminated the odds go up, of course. By using good judgement and pacing strategies, it is possible to use guessing to gradually increase the overall SAT score. However, skipping difficult questions - and just recognizing them - is also important for many reasons.
