1. These are tricky questions that provide choices which are:
-not stated in the passage;
-stated, but are not relevant;
-stated but could refer to a different topic; and
-opposite of the the passage has stated.
2. Skim and Scan the passage for the correct answer.
3. Don't spend too much time on a particular item. Skip, but make it a point to go back to the item/s skipped if you still have time.
4. Cross-out the choices that you have identified as incorrect.
