TAKEAWAYS
Follow the Text's Lead: The questions typically align with the chronological flow of the text, guiding you through the material Use this to your advantage to anticipate and find answers as you read.
Guess Strategically, Never Leave Blank: With no penalties for incorrect answers, ensure you respond to every question. Use the process of elimination to improve your odds, aiming to discount at least four options based on solid reasoning.
Engage Deeply with the Text: Enhance your understanding and recall by annotating for specific elements such as purpose, character and plot functions, narrative voice, overall message, shifts in tone or structure, POV, mood, and the nuances of language (diction and syntax). This prepares you to anticipate answers and approach questions with insight
Anticipate Before You Look: Try to formulate your answer based on your understanding before scanning the provided choices This approach reduces the risk of being swayed by distractors
Be Wary of Extremes and Inaccuracies: Avoid answers that use absolute language (e.g., "always," "never," "only") and options that are too broad, too narrow, or not entirely accurate to the passage. Remember, "almost correct" is still incorrect; seek the choice that fits best without compromise.
