Crucial Test-Taking Strategies

• Process of Elimination: Learn how to systematically eliminate incorrect choices by identifying non-behavior-analytic phrasing.
• Identify Keywords: Watch for words like *IMMEDIATELY*, *FIRST*, *EXCEPT*, or *MOST likely* which change the correct course of action.
• Flagging for Review: Do not waste time on difficult questions. Flag them, move on, and return to them with fresh eyes at the end.
