Give this a watch. If you're curious to try, try it out! It might work, it might not. But it can't hurt to try! 

IMPORTANT: If you're going to use the strategy, make sure you practice it a couple of times on the online practice test. You should be able to preview and chunk in 5 minutes or less. If you can't get that speed, try other strategies. Ask me questions if you have any!

The girl wakes up and runs away. She is afraid to admit the truth."
