I heard about the straight-line method, where u just draw a straight light in the circle and apparently, the machine still counts it as an answer. But I'm nervous.. is it too risky? Has anyone tried it? Or any better methods?

You really probably shouldn't risk it. It's only going to save you, what, a few fractions of a second on each section? Don't bother.

Just bubble in fully. I wouldn't take the risk, especially when it comes to the SATs.

Uhm..... I've never heard of any stretegy for faster bubbling, but I don't think that'll work. Just regular fill-ins.. don't worry,...

yeah... don't worry about filling in the bubbles.

if you're REALLY worried about it, then just don't fill in any bubbles while you're going through the booklet and circle the answers in your test book.

then when you have like 5 minutes left in the section, go and fill in all the bubbles at once. it saves time that you go from switching from test book to answer sheet.

then again, everyone's test taking strategies are different...

^ ya that's exactly what i did. i'd take it a page at a time where i'd mark in the answers on the booklet and at the end of each page i'd mark in 5~6 answers all at once... it saves a few minutes in the end, and it's much less confusing compared to going back and forth between the booklet and the answer sheet.

wwwweeeelll.......it's not like a really thin line but havent u guys noticed that when machines fill in the bubbles it's like a block...it doesnt cover the circle completely. so im sure if u do it somewhat similar to that it would be fine......

I do the striaght line method and just bubble all of them fully at the very end - takes me less than a minute to bubble the whole section.
