Should I attempt a question if I&#8217;m only 50% sure of the answer?<\/strong> Only if you can eliminate at least 2 of the 4 options first. Without elimination, a 50% guess is close to a coin toss, and the 0.25 negative marking makes that a losing bet over a full section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. Is it better to attempt more questions or stay safe with fewer, accurate ones?<\/strong> Accuracy matters more. A high attempt count with low accuracy usually scores worse than a slightly lower attempt count at 85%+ accuracy, because every wrong answer pulls down a correct one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. How much time should I give a question before deciding to skip it?<\/strong> As a rule of thumb, 30-40 seconds with no real progress is your signal to skip. Holding on longer rarely helps and usually costs you two or three other questions you could have solved instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. Does the skip-or-attempt decision change between Prelims and Mains?<\/strong> Yes. Prelims has no sectional cut-off, so you can lean slightly more aggressive in your strong sections. Mains has sectional cut-offs, so you need a safer, more even approach across every section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related PracticeMock Blogs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Topic<\/th><th>Link<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>SBI PO Mock Test Attempt Order Strategy 2026<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/sbi-po-mock-test-attempt-order-strategy-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read here<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>SBI PO Mock Question Selection Strategy 2026<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/sbi-po-mock-question-selection-strategy-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read here<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>SBI PO Syllabus 2026<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/sbi-po-syllabus-2026-prelims-mains-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read here<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>SBI PO 2026 English Preparation Strategy<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/sbi-po-2026-english-preparation-strategy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read here<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>How Many Questions to Attempt in SBI PO Prelims 2026<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/how-many-questions-should-you-attempt-in-sbi-po-prelims-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read here<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Is Your SBI PO Score Stuck?
