Strategies for Multiple Choice Success

Multiple choice questions test your ability to quickly analyze and apply macroeconomic concepts. Focus on understanding key terms, process of elimination, and managing your time efficiently.

  • Eliminate obviously incorrect options first.
  • Look for keywords like 'increase,' 'decrease,' or 'shift.'
  • If stuck, make an educated guess—there is no penalty for wrong answers on the AP Exam.
  • Watch out for tricky wording and double negatives.

Regularly reviewing flashcards and practicing with sample questions can boost your score.

Examples

  • Cross out two options you know are wrong, then focus on the remaining choices.

  • Underline important terms in the question to avoid common mistakes.
