all the prac exams i've done: i read mc thoroughly (work out all the answers) in reading time and start reading short answer briefly. i do mc to start with (about 10 mins spent on it) and then spend the rest of the time on the short answer. and it works for me :)

I will likely read the multiple choice aspect and answer them in my head.
Then I will narrow the short answer questions down into the order that I know the most to the ones I am unsure of. I will likely leave the interplay one towards the end since if I get the majority of the others completed in good time then I will have good time to think of it properly and have time to read over if time permits.
You?

Yer pretty much the same try and knock down all the MC questions in reading time than work through everything i am most confident in and leave dreaded interplay Q's till the end. Hopefully leave a bit of time to read over.
Good Luck
