Help needed from native English speakers to identify sentence error!
Hi there!
I am working on a booklet aiming to improve writing and there is a sentence like this:
The exam was very trying, and I kept trying to finish on time without making too many errors.
The question for the sentence above is that it has redundant part that should be eliminated. I fail to identify which part is unnecessary and would you please do me a favor?
Thx a lot!

HOW to understand the following essay question?
This is a TOEFL writing task 2 question and it goes like this:
Some people believe that when busy parents do not have a lot of time to spend with their children, the best use of that time is to have fun playing games or sports. Others believe that it is best to use that time doing things together that are related to schoolwork. Which of the two approaches do you prefer?
The confusion part is about the " the best use of THAT time". So, grammatically or pragmatically, which is the better way for "THAT" time? Is THAT time the time that the parents spend with their children, OR the time that children spend without their parents because they are busy?
Or in other words, what should the test-takers respond? Are the both way all right as long as they define "THAT" time at the beginning of their essay?
Answers from native speakers or TOEFL tutors are so welcomed!
