Mastering Multiple-Choice Questions

Smart Approaches to Exam Questions

Multiple-choice questions can be tricky! Focus on reading each question carefully, eliminating obviously wrong answers, and looking for clues in the question stem. When stuck, make your best educated guess—never leave a question blank.

Tips for Success

  • Read all options before choosing.
  • Watch for keywords like 'best,' 'first,' or 'most appropriate.'
  • Use logic and your knowledge base to narrow down choices.

Examples

  • Spotting words like 'first' or 'most important' to identify what the question is really asking.

  • Eliminating two obviously wrong answers to improve your chances of guessing correctly.
