Well I was looking more for an educated guessing system, you know like looking for key words in the question or picking the longest answer provided ect...
Well I will be using this strategy tomorrow and will let you know how it goes! hilarious

Well - I was taught to never choose the answers with "extreme" words like "never" or "always." Not sure if that's really true. Best wishes tomorrow.

Sometimes there is no way to even make an educated guess. For example, when I took the Anthro exam a few weeks ago there was a question that asked something like "who studied linguistics in the Philippines?"
A. Some name
B. Some other name
C. Yet another name
D. A fourth name.
I had never seen or heard any of the names listed. It is kinda hard to make an educated guess so I just chose one and moved on. hilarious

Read through the exam specific post for the test you are going to take and write down all the names or terms people suggest you study. It would be a good idea to look over their definition too or just a quick wiki search to get a general feel but when reading through your choices if one of them is a term from that list it is probably the right answer.

You can use the Steve Miller Band technique for guessing... as the song goes: Abra, Abra Cadabra (JUST TAKE OUT ALL THE R's)
