I have taken the Florida test, so I can only give general advice.
I went through and answered all of the questions I knew. Then I went through and answered all of the questions that I felt I could find the answer for relatively quickly. Then I went back and spent time looking for the answers that I wasn't sure I could find, then went back to recheck any answers I wasn't 100% sure of. If you just can't come up with the answer, and it is multiple choice, pick the answer that looks best to you. Don't let yourself get hung up on a single question, and run out of time to answer several other questions that you probably could answer correctly.
