Chapter 2:Cracking the multiple choice Section

The first 5 chapters of the book don't get into any history yet so I'll just take notes on what the chapters are about. At the beginning of this chapter it talks about how sometimes guessing after doing all the work you can is okay. If you get stuck on a question and keep thinking on it then you're wasting time. You only have about 45 seconds for each question. If you rush through then you might chose a wrong answer because you read the question wrong. You should read answers with a critical eye so you can process the answers more quickly. Using process of elimination helps make your chances of getting correct answers better. You should read answer choices as "wrong until proven right". The book suggests to skip questions that you can't eliminate any of the answers. There are 4 steps to answering a multiple choice question:1)Read the question and put it in your own words. 2)Answer in your own words. 3)Process of elimination. 4)Guess and go. There were a few sample questions but I haven't learned any of the history yet so I couldn't answer the questions. I think I'll go on and after I finish the history section go back and answer the questions.
