When reviewing quizzes and full-lengths, what should I do with the questions I ran out of time on?

Should I use post-phrasing on those questions? Should I interrogate the passages belonging to those questions? Should I skip those questions?

Thank you so much!

    In review, it's definitely still worth giving it a shot to see if you can answer the question without an explanation. It may help to inform you about future triaging decisions. Were those straight-forward questions? Did you triage them or were they at the end of the section? What questions did you end up investing more time on to "sacrifice" those questions that were missed?

    The skipped questions are usually self-proclaimed difficult questions: e.g. questions that cover topics I am uncomfortable with and questions from experimental passages.

    Got it! I'm glad that you're prioritizing the more straight-forward questions. In any case, reviewing through all of them is always valuable. You might be surprised at how manageable some of them are after a second glance.
