When answering multiple-choice questions, strategies for elimination of choices include:
1. Identifying one choice as correct to eliminate "none of the above" as a choice.
2. Identifying one choice as incorrect to eliminate "all of the above" as a choice.
3. Not going back and changing an answer once a choice is identified.
4. Going back and reviewing and changing answers as needed once finished with a test.
5. Realizing that most often, the first instinct as to the correct answer is correct.

Rationale 1: Strategies for selecting the correct answer include identifying one or more correct or incorrect answers to eliminate an "all of the above" or "none of the above" answer. Changing questions after answering often changes a correct answer to an incorrect answer, as the first answer chosen is often correct.
