Multiple Choice Test Tips-Help
Tips on answering multiple choice questions

1. Read the question before you look at the answer.

2. Come up with the answer in your head before looking at the answers,
this way the choices given on the test won't throw you off or trick you.

3. Eliminate answers you know aren't right.

4. Read all the choices before choosing your answer.

5. If there is no guessing penalty, always take an educated guess and select
answer.

6. Don't keep on changing your answer, usually your first choice is the right
one, unless you miss-read the question.

7. In "All of the above" and "None of the above" choices, if you are certain
one of the statements is true don't choose "None of the above" or one
of the statements are false don't choose "All of the above".

8. In a question with an "All of the above" choice, if you see that at least two
correct statements, then "All of the above" is probably the answer.

9. A positive choice is more likely to be true than a negative one.

10. If there is an "All of the above" option and you know that at least two of the
choices are correct select the "All of the above" choice

11. Usually the correct answer is the choice with the most information.
