Process of Elimination

Narrowing Down the Choices\n\nSometimes, you won't know the answer right away. That's okay! Use the process of elimination to remove choices that are clearly wrong. \n\n- Cross out answers that don't make sense.\n- Compare the remaining choices and pick the best one.\n\nThis strategy helps you make an educated guess and increases your chances of picking the correct answer.

Examples

  • Crossing out answer choices in a synonym question that have the wrong meaning.

  • Eliminating analogy options that don't match the relationship.
