Mastering Multiple Choice

Outsmarting the Test

Multiple choice questions can be tricky, but with the right strategies, you'll breeze through them.

  • Eliminate obviously wrong answers first.
  • Plug in possible answers if the question allows.
  • Estimate if you’re short on time—sometimes a quick sketch or calculation will do the trick!
  • Watch for common traps, like switching signs or missing constants.

Stay calm, trust your preparation, and don’t spend too long on one question!

Examples

  • Crossing out two answers that don’t make sense before calculating.

  • Plugging answer choices into the original equation to check which fits.
