Elimination Techniques

Narrow Down Your Choices

When you’re unsure, use the process of elimination to improve your odds.

Cross off obviously wrong answers

  • Look for extreme or irrelevant choices
  • Compare remaining options carefully

This approach can turn a guess into an educated one and boost your confidence!

Examples

  • Eliminating answer choices that don’t fit the sentence meaning.

  • Noticing that two answer choices have similar meanings and likely aren’t both correct.
