    My advice is always to spend the 15 minute reading time to get thoroughly familiar with the question 1 scenario. You can read, underline, write in the margin, work out calculations etc in that 15 minutes (just don’t start to write your answer!) It will take 15 minutes to get familiar with that question then do it first.

    I’m sure you won’t resist having a quick look – I would. But spend your time on Q1.

    and is there enough time for us to decide which 2 questions to do from section B? or we should select it randomly to save time ?

    I don’t think choosing randomly is a good strategy. You will be able to get some clue from the requirements as to whether or not you are likely to like the question.
