Have you scheduled it for October? If so, can you afford to push it back to next February?
Part of success is getting comfortable enough with the material that you're not stressed out when taking the test. That can take time.

I was stressed too and my tutor suggested I push it back to Dec. I wrote to different schools to make sure that they would accept the Dec scores. Now that gives me more time.

Why choice A is the correct answer, I thought it was B. Any main point question should be answered by the subject of the passage from the broader point of view; I.e, what the writer is generally talking about and for me he is the changing face of Irish landscape from several angles starting with historical documents and then with fossilized pollens, for which he dedicated much of his writing. But his main point is not to present his analysis about pollens, and hence choice be appears to be much valid answer

Bereket,
Besides the skeleton of the traditional method, the new layer starts with pollen analysis, the two examples thereof and the family species limit.
If you read lines 26 - 35, part of the first example, you'll see that the traditional way, historical documents, didn't even have a hypothesis for 400 A.D.
