Mastering Multiple Choice Questions
Do you have a case of MCTA? Multiple Choice Test Anxiety You are not alone. Research shows that you can actually do worse on a multiple choice test NOT because of the questions, but because of how you feel about the test!

4. Grammar don’t count! You don’t have to be me to write multiple choice!
5 Ways To Improve Your Success On Multiple Choice Questions 1. Read the question carefully! Circle, highlight or underline key words. Pay special attention to words that narrow response options like principal, primary, major.
2. Predict an answer BEFORE looking at alternatives.
3. Answer the questions you know first, and go back to the more difficult ones later.
4. Eliminate the wrong answers. Analyze the options as true/false. Then eliminate the false answer(s).
5. Look at the options you have left. Usually, you can eliminate answers that contain absolutes such as “always” and “never”

Three Commandments 1. Answer all questions. 2. Don’t be afraid to guess. . . but still put some thought into it. 3. Leave time to check over you answers.
