when to guess on critical reading vocab?

<p>Ok so tommoro if I am only able to eliminate
2, should I guess...? or should I leave it blank.</p>

<p>Regarding Math... If I only get 3 wrong and 2 omit on a regular basis, is it a better idea for me to guess on all 5, or leave 2 blank. Assuming I am left with choices that I did not get in my calculations.?</p>

<p>If you can eliminate one, you’re left with a 25% chance of getting 1 point or 75% chance of losing 1/4 of a point. Up to you to decide if that’s worth it.</p>

<p>If you can eliminate more than one, guess.</p>

<p>In your situation for math: Getting “3 wrong + 2 omit” and “5 wrong” is the same score. However, if you get 6 wrong your score will drop.</p>

<p>Statistically, if you can eliminate 2 it is profitable to guess, but i would advice only guessing if you can get it down to 2 choices. </p>

<p>For pretty much any question, if you can get down to 2 choices, then make an educated guess.</p>

<p>For math, if you keep trying the problem over and over and don’t get an answer that matches a choice, then just leave it blank. Guessing on math is almost a sure incorrect answer.</p>

<p>if u eliminate one, u should guess.</p>

<p>I always guess</p>

<p>This is my basis</p>

<p>You have a 1/5 chance of getting 1 point, and a 4/5 chance of losing a fourth of a point</p>

<p>Based on that, if you guess 5 questions, you would get 1 point - 4(1/4) points, which is 0</p>

<p>And there is a 95% chance that you will be able to limit at LEAST one answer choice, so it is better to guess unless you are short on time and don’t understand the question</p>
