Elimination and Guessing Strategies

Smart Guessing Can Boost Your Score

When you’re unsure of an answer, use elimination to cross out choices that don’t make sense. With fewer options, your chances of guessing correctly go up. Never leave a question blank—there’s no penalty for guessing on the GED!

How to Use Elimination:

  • Look for obviously wrong answers
  • Plug answer choices back into the question
  • Make your best guess if you’re still unsure

Remember, every point counts!

Examples

  • Crossing off answers that are too large or too small before making a guess

  • Substituting possible answers into an equation to see which one works
