turns out i've been accidentally doing a similar methodology for years. Whenever I get a multiple choice test I always look for the outlier answers that I know it absolutely cannot be, and then look for two answers that are incredibly similar. 9 times out of 10 I find that in quizzes the tester will always make one choice that is incredibly similar to the right answer, but fudge the number slightly to make sure that if you're guessing at best it comes down to a 50% chance

On the very first day of an AP History class I had in high school, the teacher gave us a quiz with questions like this (some related to history topics we'd never talk about in class -- some extremely confusing math questions, some science, etc). He told us to read the instructions carefully before starting (all the instructions told us to skip to the next section over and over til you got to the end of the quiz). At the end of the quiz, the final line said to not answer any of the preceding questions, and this quiz was only to test who read and followed the instructions. I am *horrible* at math, and was on the verge of tears at thought of failing a quiz my first day in class before reading those instructions. xD

I remember seeing something like this on a show called "Brain Games", then some time after that, one of my English teachers (I think they were English, Literature, something like that) also gave out an altered, but similar version of that test for extra credit. I IMMEDIATELY knew the catch, so I just zipped my lips and said nothing while around 7 of the 15-20 students in the class *did* do the instructions one by one. It apparently had steps like drawing a star in the top left of the paper, counting from 10 to 0, or poking holes on the right side of the paper. Of course, this was YEARS ago at this point, so some details might've been off.

Turned out it was all A after all and everyone who answered a few questions not A immediately knew they got those answers wrong

I got a 28 on my ACT without studying which isnt stellar but i think almost all people fall in the 23-26 range so maybe my advice is decent. The material will always be different so being a prepared, strategic, and unanxious test taker will always go further on a test about 5 different subjects because your brain is constantly switching gears during an ACT/SAT so you can never really get into the flow state for any of the subjects. Also youre against the clock so you cant think for too long, always skip a question that doesnt make sense on the 2nd read. And you can make up score in weak areas, i got a 36 on ACT reading which is perfect but like a 23 on science lol, but the idea is focus hard on the subjects youre good at, and regain mental stamina during subjects that are throwaway to you.

Three words that will make any average student taking an advanced math quiz shit bricks "Show your work"

Most standardized tests don't actually test knowledge. They really test one specific thing: how good you are at taking tests. I was a good test taker because instead of trying to figure out the answer, I figured out the question. Based on the way they phrase their question, you can usually get a pretty good idea of the type of answer they're looking for. Another nice trick is for questions like "Which of these statements is true?" The way this question is written implies that the other statements have to be false. So if you see two statements that are similar, or one implies the other, they can't both be true, so they must be false. Really you should treat these kinds of tests like a challenge to see how far you can get without having to remember a single relevant fact. Professional SAT prep classes will make you do vocabulary problems with fake, made-up words, to force you to use context clues and make an informed guess. You might think this all just sounds like they're just teaching kids to bullshit. Yup, they are! And people have mixed feelings about that, which is why many colleges are phasing out standardized testing requirements.

Figured this out long ago. A lot of the time on a four choice test, two of the options will be way off and two will be extremely close to avoid guesstimating. What they failed to realize is this also turns a four choice question into a two choice question.

True sad story: when I was in middle school we had an emergency assembly about how to make the best educated guess on this test. Basically the student's scores had been so low for such a long time that the school would be in big trouble if they didn't get higher scores that year.

Well it comes down to the teachers not the students they don't know how to teach my teacher was extremely stressed back when I was at school because our class everyone ended up having a low score where as the other class had all the students having a passing grade. The teacher clearly didn't know how to teach us in a way for us to actually learn anything instead she just forced us to copy what she wrote on the board and do pages in the text book where as the other teacher goes over each question with with the most detail and their homework was to work on what they struggled on instead of just doing random pages after pages which were useless in the test and exams she risked losing her job (surprisingly she's still teaching till this day which is a problem) maybe because the school is only about 5 years old so they'd be short staffed if they got rid of any teachers especially because she also teaches the year 7s which is like 5-6 classes big

For any future sat taker: Try answering WITHOUT giving a damn what the previous answers were. A lot of times you don't get an A for ages and that does not influence your next answer at all (we all tend to do this subconsciously, so I suggest you fill the bubbles after you've marked them on the paper, that'll help you avoid it).
