What are the steps you should aim to incorporate into your approach to dealing with PANCE questions? They need to be generic enough to work with different kinds of questions. These steps also need to protect you from making mistakes<\/a> that could hurt you. Let\u2019s look at the approach to questions used by many good test takers and focus on why it works.<\/p>\n

The Basic Steps<\/h4>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

1.\u00a0<\/span>Read the question carefully to locate the important clues.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0<\/span>Make sure you fully understand what\u2019s being asked.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0<\/span>Before looking at any answer choices, put the clues together with what you are being asked and allow your mind to form an answer.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0<\/span>Look at the choices offered, and if one of them fits your anticipated answer, mark it.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0<\/span>If no choice is a good fit, use general knowledge, larger concepts, and logic to eliminate as many choices as you can.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0<\/span>Select an answer from the remaining choices.<\/p>\n

Not all of these steps will necessarily be used with every question. For example, if a question\u00a0<\/span>asked which bacterial organism is most commonly responsible for neonatal pneumonia and you remembered it, then the process would stop at Step 4. However, in most standardized examinations, many questions will ask you to assess specifics that you won\u2019t be able to recall. It is in dealing with these questions that good test takers have a real advantage over those who are less adept. So, just what methods are used to get more correct answers?<\/p>\n
