    Hi,
    You should definitely avoid the mcq’s during your 15 mins of reading time. You need to go to the 15 mark questions first, read the requirements and then on to the 10 mark questions. Do some workings on the question paper if you want and decide which order you are going to do the questions. Best (most liked) question done first and then move on to your next favourite. Mcq’s should be done last

    I would personally do mcqs just because in some of them u either know it or yiu either don’t. Get that out the way. Tey fi using that like an hour or before that. And after that spend like 2 hours and 15 minz on section B.

    Just my approach

    I also always do the MCQ’s first, in the end of the day they give 40 points which is half of the exam if you have half correct.
