In order to pass an exam, you need to prepare for it and
strategize your answering techniques.
Take for example the following question.
A person wants to buy a computer but doesn’t know what
computer to buy. She only knows that she
needs a fast computer. She had heard,
however, that fast computers have fast processor speeds. Choose the correct
answer from the following:
1. Get a computer with the highest processor speed.
2. Processor speed is not the only thing to worry about.
The multiple choice question gives 2 answers that are both
correct, but one answer is the best answer to the situational question. Both answers are good answers. If the multiple choice question has multiple
good answers, you need to choose the best answer or the better of the good
answers.
How do you choose the best answer? The best answer is the one that applies to
the overall question or situation.
Moreover, you must realize that the aim of a multiple choice question is
to check if you really KNOW ALL there is to know about a certain subject, and not
just one or a few things about it.
So what is the answer to this question? The best answer is choice 2 because choice 1 is only a partial answer when buying and choosing a computer for any consumer.
Additional strategies for passing a test are the following:
1. Loosen up, medidate, or relax for a few minutes before the hour of the test so that you can shake away anything that may trouble your mind.
2. Know how many questions there are and, if possible, check which questions will take some time for you to answer.
3. Answer the questions that you know the answers and take a guess on those where you can provide a good guess.
4. Skip the questions, if possible, that you don't know the answers or will take some time to make a good guess, and come back to them after you've written the answers to questions you know.
5. Answer all the questions, if there is no penalty for wrong answers, because guessing the correct answer for a question you don't know still adds up to your total score.
6. Review all your answers to make sure you read the questions correctly.
