Study Strategies

## Navigating Tricky Questions\n\nMultiple-choice questions can sometimes be challenging, but there are techniques to help. Read each question carefully, eliminate obviously wrong answers, and make educated guesses when you're unsure.\n\n### Tips\n\n- Look for keywords in the question\n- Pay attention to qualifiers like 'always' or 'never'\n- Don't spend too long on any one question—move on and return later if needed

Examples

  • Crossing out two wrong answers to increase your odds.
  • Highlighting key words that change the meaning of a question.
