If you’re stuck on a difficult test question, you can increase your chances of choosing the right answer by guessing strategically. Finding contextual hints will help you solve a difficult question. Choose the option that you are familiar with, even if you are only suspicious as if you already knew about the sentence. Find the rule in true and false multiple-choice sentences, choose “false” if the sentence contains absolute words like “all” or “no correct answer”. When taking multiple-choice multiple-choice questions, you should rule out, pay attention to grammatical signs, and choose the most detailed answer if in doubt.
Steps
Guess the answer of the quiz right or wrong
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/cc/Pass-an-Essay-Test-in-History-Class-Step-15.jpg/v4-460px-Pass- an-Essay-Test-in-History-Class-Step-15.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/cc/Pass-an-Essay-Test- in-History-Class-Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Pass-an-Essay-Test-in-History-Class-Step-15.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,” bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Start answering questions that you know the answers to. Of course you want to answer as many questions as possible before time runs out. In addition, in the true-false test, knowing the answer to the question immediately before and after a difficult question can help you find the pattern of the answer. Speculating based on the law of right and wrong is more effective than guessing at random. [1] X Research Source
- When you skip a question in a test with a separate answer sheet, be sure to skip the corresponding question on the answer sheet. That way your answers will not be confused.

Choose the opposite answer if the surrounding sentences all have the same answer. Let’s say you know that the question that precedes and follows the difficult question has a “yes” answer. Most likely the answer to the question you are stuck on will be “wrong”. The probability that the three answers are similar is relatively low. [2] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/ac/Defer-University-Acceptance-Step-14.jpg/v4-460px-Defer-University-Acceptance-Step-14. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/ac/Defer-University-Acceptance-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Defer-University-Acceptance-Step- 14.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Choose the “wrong” answer if there is an absolute word in the sentence. Absolute words are words that do not allow exceptions, for example: everyone, everyone, never, always. Few things happen without exception, so questions with absolute words often have a “wrong” answer. [3] X Research Sources
- Questions that contain absolute words that have a “right” answer are often a well-known fact; These sentences are not suitable for the test.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d1/Stay-Out-of-Trouble-in-Schop-Step-3-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Stay-Out-of-Trouble-in-Schop-Step-3-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/d1/Stay-Out- of-Trouble-in-Schop-Step-3-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Stay-Out-of-Trouble-in-Schop-Step-3-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose the “correct” answer if you see words like “some”, “most” or “a little”. It is highly likely that sentences with relative words – as opposed to absolute words – often have a “correct” answer. When an allow clause has exceptions, there is a high probability that it will be true at least in some cases. [4] X Research Sources
- Other relative terms include “regularly”, “ordinarily”, “occasionally” and “often”.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/88/Understand-the-Mind-of-an-Interviewer-Step-8.jpg/v4-460px-Understand-the- Mind-of-an-Interviewer-Step-8.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/88/Understand-the-Mind-of-an-Interviewer- Step-8.jpg/v4-728px-Understand-the-Mind-of-an-Interviewer-Step-8.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose “correct” if you’re really stuck. Choose the “correct” option if the other true/false tips don’t apply and you don’t know the answer. It is easier to repeat a fact than to make a false statement, so problem makers often include more “true” answers than “wrong” answers. [5] X Research Sources
- For example, if you are stuck in a sentence where there is no absolute or relative word in the sentence, the answer to the preceding sentence is “true” and the following sentence is “false”, it is best to choose “true” for this question.

Speculate before reading options. When reading the question, try not to look down at the options or cover them with your hand. You should try to guess the answer, then read through the options and see if any is close to your guess. [6] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/6a/Get-Organized-for-Cplege-or-Grad-Schop-Step-8-Version-3.jpg/v4- 460px-Get-Organized-for-Cplege-or-Grad-Schop-Step-8-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/6a/ Get-Organized-for-Cplege-or-Grad-Schop-Step-8-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Get-Organized-for-Cplege-or-Grad-Schop-Step-8-Version-3. jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Exclude completely different answers as well as largest and smallest numbers. Eliminate choices that are funny, obvious wrong, or completely irrelevant. If the answer is a number, exclude the largest and the smallest number, then guess between the choices with the numbers in the middle. [7] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/5a/Overcome-Exam-Tension-Step-11.jpg/v4-460px-Overcome-Exam-Tension-Step-11. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/5a/Overcome-Exam-Tension-Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Overcome-Exam-Tension-Step- 11.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Watch for grammar cues. This may seem obvious, but sometimes the questioner will accidentally come up with a question whose grammar is only correct when it comes to a certain answer. Read the question and options carefully, excluding answers that do not match the grammar of the question. [8] X Research Sources
- For example, in an English test, the question asked is: “A salamander is an” (Vietnamese means “a salamander is a species”), and “amphibian” (Vietnamese means “amphibian”) is the only option that starts with a vowel, you will immediately know that is the answer.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/5d/Understand-the-Mind-of-an-Interviewer-Step-11.jpg/v4-460px-Understand-the- Mind-of-an-Interviewer-Step-11.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/5d/Understand-the-Mind-of-an-Interviewer- Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Understand-the-Mind-of-an-Interviewer-Step-11.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Select “All of the above” if this option appears only once in the test. If the whole question has only one question with the answer to “All of the above” or “No correct answer”, this is most likely the answer. [9] X Research Sources , however, exercise judgment when you are confident that at least one option is not appropriate.
- If you are completely stuck and can’t rule out any options, chances are the “all” or “no right answer” option will be the answer. When a question comes up with an “all” or “no correct answer” option, the chance that this option is the answer can be up to 65%. [10] X Research Source
Well-founded speculation
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/9f/Pass-a-Class-Without-Really-Studying-Step-15.jpg/v4-460px-Pass-a- Class-Without-Really-Studying-Step-15.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/9f/Pass-a-Class-Without-Really-Studying- Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Pass-a-Class-Without-Really-Studying-Step-15.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Ask for past tests. Ask if your teacher keeps track of past test papers and can share them with you. From there, you can know the type of question and find the rule of the answer. [11] X Research Source
- Note that studying for exams is always better than trying to outdo the teacher. If you have to choose between two things: study review or brainstorm to find the frequency of the “correct” answer, choose study.

Find out if you get points deducted for leaving an answer blank. Ask your teacher or do your own research to see if the standardized test will deduct points for questions that leave the answer blank. Some test takers resist guessing by only deducting points if you get it wrong. If you leave the answer blank without any points deducted, it is best not to guess. [12] X Research Source
- Previously, the SAT used a deductive system to prevent guessing. This test skips blank answers and only deducts points for incorrect answers. But in 2016, the Cplege Board organization removed this mechanism. [13] X Trusted Source Cplege Board Go to Source Other tests such as the PSAT, ACT, and AP also don’t have an anti-guess feature. With these tests, a correct answer will earn you points, and a wrong or blank answer will give you no points. [14] X Research Source
- Standardized tests can be subject to change, so it’s important to find out if an updated test includes anti-guessing scoring.

Before guessing, answer the questions you know the answer to. Time management is often an important factor when taking a test. Instead of spending too much time guessing a difficult question, go through all the questions you can confidently answer. Don’t run out of time and leave an easy question blank. [15] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/8a/Achieve-Your-Goals-for-the-New-Schop-Year-Step-14.jpg/v4-460px- Achieve-Your-Goals-for-the-New-Schop-Year-Step-14.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/8a/Achieve-Your- Goals-for-the-New-Schop-Year-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Achieve-Your-Goals-for-the-New-Schop-Year-Step-14.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Look for context clues in the test. You can find answers to a difficult question elsewhere in the test. These questions can recall knowledge or give you contextual cues for figuring out the answer to a difficult question. [16] X Research Source
- For example, a multiple-choice question that says the following: “Is Weta a plant, insect, fish, or animal?” Another question on the test was: “How many species of weta have entomologists identified?” If you knew that entomologists specialize in the study of insects, you would have answered the first question.

Choose answers that sound familiar. Sometimes the answer will remind you of a familiar feeling like you’ve met before. If you are confused between a familiar option and a sentence containing words you have never seen before, choose the sentence that evokes a sense of familiarity. [17] X Research Source
