Elimination and Estimation Tactics

Outsmart Tricky Questions

Use elimination to cross out answers you know are wrong. This boosts your odds if you have to guess. For challenging calculations, estimate the answer to see which options make sense—sometimes you can rule out wildly high or low choices quickly. Trust your math sense!

Examples

  • Cross out two unrealistic answer choices to improve your chances.

  • Estimate a calculation to see if the answer should be closer to 10 or 100 before solving.
