During reading time Read all the texts.
Then if you got time read the questions to have an idea of what techniques you need.

Works every time... 1.a 2.c 3.a 4.d 5.d 6.b 7.c 8.a 9.d 10.b 11.c 12.c 13.b 14.a 15.d 16.d 17.b 18.d 19.a 20.c assured 100%. No need to thank me, i like to think of myself as somewhat a hero, an unsung hero

Well, what I do is read the question, then look for the answer in the text. This method works for me, but a warning is that make sure you read the context around the section of the text where the answer is to get a full understanding, otherwise skim reading for the answer can lead to silly mistakes.Hope I helped.

Yer you've said this before. i used it in an exam for a joke and got 18/20 for multiple choice. i even used it in senior science and got 17-18 (can't remember which) /20. i can't believe you formulated a successful equation using psychological and mathematical equations. TYVM you saved me haha

ahaha skim reading does lead to mistakes
I would suggest reading the entirety of the passages,
as I did not in my trial
and I did not go very well.

he said it only works from 2009, as the numbers random generator and proposed questions from the BOS have alluded him to the fact that the multiple choice is easily calculated when informed of the year, and head BOS director for that subject (apparently he judges their character and makes his decisions in calculations based on that) but seriously it did work for me this year

i did everything else first.. and left mc to last.. knowing if worse comes to worse i could simply guess and get a 25% chance at getting it right. either way, i used the process of elimination and when i couldd't separate two answers, i circled it moved on .. and came back to it later

multiple choice was my worst section.
I tried a few tricks to pull my marks in MC to the 60s:

- read text first, then answer questions
- first instinct is always correct
- dont change answer unless 100% certain
- underline key words
- use process of elimination
- guess with your gut instinct
- NEVER EVER spend too much time on multiple choice

MC is a killer.
