If certain words cause confusion, cross them out and substitute a
different word, then read the question again.
Example: substitute the word “spin” for rotate or “orbit” for revolution.

Don’t leave any questions blank! Mark an answer for every question. You may lose credit by
guessing incorrectly, but an unanswered question
will cost you credit automatically.

Try to supply your own answer to a multiple choice question before you look at the alternatives. Then choose the response closest to your own answer.

If all else fails and you have to guess an answer, then and only then consider this advice:
If two choices are very similar choose neither. If two choices are opposite, choose one of them. The most general alternative is frequently the right answer. Don't change your original answer unless you're completely sure it's wrong.

Skip over hard questions that are stumping you. Go back to them later. Something else in the test
may give you a clue to the harder problems.
