Exam Tips

[c9]

...all these years I've been fooled!!

• "When in doubt, choose answer 'c' — it's usually right."
  
  Wrong.
  
  Contrary to campus myth, studies show that professors don't put the right answer in one position more often than another, said Arias's teacher, Dawn Lovas, in a course on study skills that is compulsory for Arias and all first-year students at Ryerson University.
  
  
• "Don't ever change your answer. Your first instinct is always right."
  
  Wrong again, Lovas said.
  
  Research shows students switch from wrong to right answers slightly more often than the other way around, she warned about 20 students during a recent Friday morning session on multiple-choice tests.
  
  
• "If one of the choices is `All of the above,' take it. It's always right."
  
  Not always, Lovas warned.
  
  
• "When in doubt, choose the longest answer."
  
  Wrong again.

Oh well, back to sleeping with the profs...
