Guess answers to MCQs like a pro !!!



In almost every exam we get multiple answer questions,but how many of us get 10 out of 10? Even though we know the content by heart, there are times that we might not be able to answer the question. In the grade 12 first term examination I didn't have enough time to answer for 9 mcqs. With the little time I had,if i was going to solve them, then I will only be solving only 2 or 3. So I just looked at the answers and then I got it.. It's not about the questions..the answers themselves guided me to the correct answer. In this method you don't even have to look at the question to get the correct answer. I have done this so many times and 90% times it worked. So lets see what is this magic..
People who make these questions are trying really hard to fool us,but that's also which helps us to get the correct answer. Let me explain this to you using an example. Let's look at the answers of a problem.
01) (n-1)A
02) (n-1)B
03) (n-1)(A+B)
04) (n-1)(A-B)
05) n(A+B)

When we take a look at these answers it's very clear that the (n-1) part is there in 4 answers. So definitely it should be a part of the correct answer.So now we have a part of the correct answer.The answer should be 1,2,3 or 4. Now when we look at the second half of the answer (A+B) is appearing twice. So this should be the second part. When we combine these two together we get our answer,which is the 3rd one. It is that simple. :)


So good luck for your exams.. Wish you all the best !! :)

    1. Nangi when you study a chapter finish all the mcqs and essays related to that chapter and move on to the next. Once you are done with the whole syllabus start doing whole papers.

How to survive A/Ls in 3 months...

Today is the first of May and there are exactly three months until GCE A/L exams begin. I intend to help people who has realized this and started panicking and feeling lost, but not only A/L students but also any student with any upcoming exam can use these tips to ace your exam. I will first explain why most of us usually wait until the day before deadline to do stuff. It's explained by Parkinson's law which states that " Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion". What it means is, if we are given a week to finish a task we will finish it within the week and if we are given an year to finish the same task we will spend the whole year doing it. Well that's how usually us, lazy humans work. Now that you know what happened there is no time to regret about how we procrastinated on unnecessary things etc. Now it's time to damage control. I will not gurantee you will get 3As by following these. (It's possible depending on
