Smart Guessing and Elimination

Guess Smarter, Not Harder

Don’t panic if you don’t know the answer! Use elimination to rule out obviously wrong choices and improve your odds.

  • Look for patterns in the answer choices.
  • Eliminate extremes or answers that don't match question logic.
  • Always answer every question—no penalty for guessing!

Strategic guessing keeps you moving and can boost your GMAT score.

Examples

  • Eliminating two out of five answers on a Data Sufficiency question and choosing between the remaining options.

  • Spotting a grammar error that appears in multiple sentence correction answers and ruling those out.
