When stuck between two Answer Choices:

MUST get into my own words what the difference between the ACs

then rephrase what you are looking for in the right AC

then MAKE YOURSELF highlight a couple potential “red flags” for each

word or phrase that is unsupported, too strong, etc

Pit the “red flags” against each other

HIGHLIGHT evidence in the stimulus or passage to prove your answer

IF you are ever to change your answer (BR or regular timed conditions): MUST ask yourself do I have something wrong with the answer choice I’m moving away from? I canNOT just switch because I found another “better answer;” there are 4 wrong answers, 1 right answer

Running list of valid “red flags” that we might pick out in ACs:

super strong (leaves less open to possibility) wording in Most Strongly Supported/Inference (LR or RC) ACs such as “never,” “should,” “all,” “any”

anything that does not map back onto/is supported by the stimulus
