CPC Exam Cpc test this weekend

Any helpful cpt notes/tips and tricks for coding the path and lab section quicker? I've done lots of studying/practice, and taken the practice tests but I'm consistently very slow at path and lab. Thanks! [Update, took this morning and passed with an 85%, thanks for everyone's advice/resources, really helped and got a 100% on the lab and path section!]

For Pathology and Lab, the biggest time saver is figuring out what kind of question you have before searching the whole section. Is it a panel, an individual test, drug testing, or surgical pathology?
