Gail’s Tip: Multiple answers may be right, pick the best “right” answer
There is no penalty for selecting wrong answers, so answer every question.
Gail’s tip: (1) go through and complete questions you are certain of. (2) in the question book, cross out obvious wrong answers (3) On the second pass, complete those questions you need to look up. (4) Keep an eye on the time. At approximately the 5 minute mark, go through your unanswered questions and select the same letter for all remaining answers (e.g. mark them all “B”).
