How to track time spent per Q in esat

In esat lab mocks you dont get a timer per question while in the practice mode you do get it. My question is how do i track my time spent per question in the actual esat as without the timer per question i am not sure how much time ive spent or even when should i skip the question(guess). Due to which i end up spending 200s on the hard questions and run out of time. So how can i prevent this and like manage properly.

Sorry before hand is its a dumb question, i am just really anxious that i would end up blundering the whole thing.
Thankss for any helpp.

How to strategically guess on the esat?

i wanted to ask that how to guess and when to guess. Firstly by when to guess i mean when should i start guessing as on average on esat mocks i can answer up to 20 questions before running out of time. So should i just do 18 qs and then in the last 4 mins just scroll through and guess the rest by process of elimination or do 20 questions and then in the last 30 seconds just guess randomly all remaining answers?

Also by how to guess, what i wanted to ask was how should i eliminate options quickly ( i know it sounds really vague) but what i heard was just see what options that are most common and then guess between them. For example in a table the most occurring options for each column would be the row i guess and a bit of stretch but for some maths questions the most similar answers.(e.g same number but different signs between them or same surd). does this actually work?

Thank you for any help. Also i am doing m1 m2 phy if that helps

How to actually learn for esat

I know it sounds like a dumb question but how do you actually learn for esat, like what do you aim to do whith the questions you get wrong and all. Do you try to learn new trixks and concepts and then try to implant those tricks into other questions that you do, or do you try to learn the pattren of questions style?

Also how do you learn from your mistskes? Do you make a google doc to re do after sometime or make flash cards even??
