Smart Guessing and Elimination

Outsmarting Tough Questions

You won’t always know every answer on the SAT, but smart guessing can boost your score.

Strategies

  • Eliminate Wrong Choices: Cross out obviously incorrect options to improve your odds.
  • Trust Your Instincts: If stuck between two, go with your gut.
  • Don’t Leave Blanks: There’s no penalty for wrong answers—so always guess!

Big Advantage

These strategies help you make the most of every question, even when you’re unsure.

Examples

  • Eliminating two out of four choices to give yourself a 50% shot at a correct answer.

  • Guessing strategically on questions you don’t have time to solve.
