Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s Test Taking Strategies #2: Multiple Choice Questions – Read All
Read all the choices before deciding on the correct answer. Often there is a wrong answer that appears right or is 99% right but 1% wrong that is put in there to fool you. Students that are impulsive and do not read all the choices, tend to go for these wrong answers.

Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s Test Taking Strategies #1: Multiple Choice Questions – Elimination Method
If the answer does not stand out, try the elimination method. On a separate sheet of paper write down the letters, A B C D E to coincide with the letters of the multiple choice question. Then read over the potential answers. On your paper, cross out the letters of the answers that do not make any sense. At this point you will have eliminated all accept for the correct answer or have two choices remaining. Choosing one of the remaining two will give you 50/50 odds in getting the answer correct.

SAT or ACT? Which is better?
SAT – no science
ACT – includes science
SAT – essay writing mandatory
ACT – no essay writing (optional)
SAT – points taken off
ACT – guessing is ok as points are not taken off
There you have it. We recommend your student choose the test that plays more towards their strengths. If you want to avoid science, go with the SAT. If you want to avoid essay writing, go with the ACT. If you want the ability to guess and not have points taken off, the ACT is for you. Let us know which one you like better.

Y3K Tutor In Your Home has donated tutoring and test prep services to the Haynes Elementary School of Sudbury’s Auction. The Haynes Auction is an integral part of Haynes Organization of Parents (HOP) annual fundraising efforts. Your bids are greatly appreciated not only by Y3K Tutor In Your Home and Haynes Organization of Parents, but by the Sudbury children and families your auction bid directly impacts.
Together we can make a difference in the education of the children at Haynes Elementary School. Through our support, HOP is able to support the school by financing various cultural arts and science enrichment programs, purchasing educational technology, and providing funds for professional development, teacher stipends and school equipment not provided through the Sudbury Public School system. We believe the funds raised from the Y3K Tutor In Your Home donation will enrich the children of Sudbury and broaden their educational experience.
