Eliminating strategies
1. EXTREME LANGUAGE
CHOICES:
Eliminate answers that use extreme language,(always, never, none, all, best, worst)
3. ACCURATE/BUTCHOICES:
Some choices include information that is accurate BUT it does not answer the question(s) posed. Eliminate choices that are true but do not answer the question.
4. CONTRADICTORY CHOICES:
Eliminate choices that contradict the passage. Only choose an answer like this if the word not or except is in the question.
