Tips:
First, read the question carefully before
looking at the answers.
Look for key words
Read every word in the question. Sometimes
there are key words that will help you pick
the correct answer. Pay close attention to these
words. If you overlook one of these key words, you
could miss a question that you really know. Some
of these key words are listed below:
| BEST |
GREATEST |
NEVER |
GENERALLY |
| COMMON |
LESS |
NOT |
MOST |
| EXCEPT |
MORE |
SOMETIMES |
USUALLY |
|
Decide in your own mind how you would answer
the question.
| This helps you not to be thrown off by the different
answer choices. It helps you focus your mind to find
the best answer. |
Read all the answer choices.
Make a decision of yes, no,
or maybe as
you read each answer.
-
No answers
are choices you can definitely eliminate.
-
Maybe answers
are ones you might want to consider again.
-
For
Yes answers, tell
yourself why
this is a yes
answer. "This is true because ... "
- If you don't find a yes answer,
try eliminating at least one choice. If you can
make the best choice between two possible maybe answers,
you are making a smart guess, an educated guess.
You have increased your chances of selecting
the best answer to fifty-fifty.
|
Answer every question.
| Each correct answer is worth one point. The easy
questions are worth one point, and the difficult
questions are worth one point. Answer the easy questions
first, then take time for the hard questions. |
Review your answers if there is time.
