Effective Multiple Choice Strategies

Approaching Multiple Choice Questions

The multiple choice section rewards both knowledge and test-taking skills.

  • Read each question carefully, watching for key terms like 'most likely,' 'least likely,' or 'except.'
  • Eliminate obviously incorrect answers to improve your odds.
  • Pace yourself—don't spend too long on any one question.
  • Mark difficult questions and return to them if time allows.

Staying Calm Under

Pressure

Practicing under timed conditions can help you stay focused and confident during the real exam.

Examples

  • Skipping a tough question and coming back to it after answering easier ones.

  • Spotting a trap answer by carefully reading what the question is really asking.
