Name that strategy!!!
I am really unsure of an answer.  I spent a good amount of time on one question and I have 10 more to go.  What should the test taker do?

• answer the question anyway

• cross out choices that you know it is not and star the question to return to later

• leave it blank and hope the teacher doesn't notice

• choose two answers
