Take the Question at Face Value
Exam questions are written to test a specific concept. Adding assumptions that are not in the stem can lead you away from the correct answer. Use only the information provided.
Think Like the Guidelines
Answer based on national standards and common best practice, not what you saw once on a call. A rare exception is unlikely to be the target of the question.
Know When to Revisit
Because the CAT does not allow changes, make your decision with confidence. During practice, notice when you change right answers to wrong ones, and learn to trust your preparation.
