Using Process of Elimination

Tackle Multiple Choice with Confidence

On the CLEP, many questions are multiple choice. Use process of elimination:

  • Cross out answers you know are wrong
  • Look for keywords that match the question
  • Estimate if you’re stuck—never leave a question blank!

This strategy increases your odds even when you’re unsure.

Examples

  • Narrow down choices by removing those that don’t fit the question context.

  • If two answers are very similar, look for small differences in wording that might matter.
