When taking a multiple-choice test, the best strategy would be which of the following?

1. Narrow the choices to two options and go with your first impression.
2. Skip the question if you can't answer it impulsively, and come back to it later.
3. Choose the answer that continues a preset pattern.
4. Review the test and change answers when finished.


1
Rationale 1: Answer option 1 is the correct answer because it is usually feasible to narrow the correct answers down to two. Option 2 is incorrect because it is too easy to forget which questions were skipped. Option 4 is incorrect because your first impression is usually correct, and changing answers may result in the question being marked wrong. Tests are not designed to create a pattern on the answer sheet, so option 3 is incorrect.
