Answering Multiple-Choice Questions Effectively

Strategies for Success on Multiple-Choice\n\nThe exam includes questions about grammar, revising, and editing. Read each question carefully and eliminate obviously wrong answers first. Look for clues in the wording and double-check your choices.\n\n### Tips for Multiple-Choice\n\n- Read all options before choosing.\n- Watch for tricky words like 'not' or 'except.'\n- Trust your instincts if you’re unsure, but always double-check.\n

Examples

  • Crossing out two obviously wrong answers to improve your odds.

  • Double-checking for words like 'except' so you don’t pick the wrong answer.
