Mastering Multiple-Choice Questions

Tips for Tackling Multiple-Choice Tests

  • Read every question carefully before answering.
  • Eliminate obviously incorrect answers to improve your odds.
  • Watch out for tricky wording, especially in chemistry vocabulary.
  • Use estimation and logic when unsure—sometimes, you can rule out choices based on units or trends!
  • Don’t spend too long on any one question; mark it and return if needed.

Examples

  • If a question asks for the number of protons in potassium (K), scan the periodic table for its atomic number.

  • If two answers are opposites, one is often correct!
