  1. Don’t spend too much time on any one question. Do your best and then move on.
  2. Answers the easiest questions first, but be sure to go back to those questions you skipped.
  3. Do not change your answers unless you are very uncertain about your first answer choice.
  4. Try to answer every question. Make the most intelligent guess you can.
  5. After you have been through all of the questions once, go back and find questions you have some knowledge about and eliminate choices that you know are incorrect. 
  6. If you can eliminate two wrong answers, your chance of choosing the right answer is greater.
  7. Don’t guess blindly, but if you have time to think about the best answer choice, make it!
  8. If you finish early, check to make sure you have answered all questions.
  9. Find key words or phrases in the question that will help you choose the correct answer.
  10. Make sure you understand what the question is asking. 
  11. Be sure you are responding to the question that is being asked.
  12. If any time remains, spend it on those questions about which you know nothing or almost nothing. 
  13. As you go back through, do not change all answers. 
  14. Remember:  Your first guess is usually right.
