What is the best way to answer true/false questions in a test?

I have a midterm in my business law class next week that has all true and false questions for 12 different chapters. Please help!What is the best way to answer true/false questions in a test?
The best way would be to study the chapters beforehand so you know what is true and what is false. Good luck with that.What is the best way to answer true/false questions in a test?
You have two choices...





1]Study all the material beforehand, and feel confident in your abilities. 50/50 chance, my friend.





2] T, F, T, F, T, F, T, F, T, F, T, F... and continue this pattern. =]
With a pencil or pen.
I guess you'd better read up then. Just answer with what you think is correct. You have a 50/50 chance of being right.
Best get that book open and study, study, study!! It's called cramming, and I did it, too.
thats a good question
Believe it or not, the myth that your first gut instinct is more likely to be correct is false. There are psychological studies that prove that. The best way to answer true/false questions is to apply your knowledge of the subject as best you can, and continue through the test before coming back to difficult questions, it helps you keep your focus.
Maybe it's just me, but everyone else seems to be missing the obvious: mark True for the statements that are true, and False for the one's that aren't.





After all, do you not know the material? If you do, this is exceedingly easy (see sentence 2, above).





If you don't know the material, then the other responses are just tips for applying trickery and you might just as well be blindly guessing.





If you're studying business law, you've got a number of years education behind you and you certainly know how to take a test - any test.
If you're not sure of the answer, make an educated guess.


Also, trust your instincts. Your first instinct is usually the best answer.
you should have .done your home work. answer only the question you are sure
*Before you even look at the test, jot down on the back memory devices and facts you are afraid of forgetting.


*Do easy questions first.


*If part of a question is false, the whole statement is wrong.


*Mark absolutes FALSE and tentatives TRUE.


*Agree with the test maker.


*Use other questions for clues.


*Choose the longest answer or an involved explanation.


*Choose a broad answer over specific or partial answers.


*If 2 answers are opposites, one of them is usually true.





Good luck!
I agree with those above to study and when taking your test go with your first instinct for the answer. Don't change it unless you are absolutely sure.
