Although most students prefer true and false questions, these types of questions can be tricky. The following strategies will enhance your ability to answer true/false questions correctly: Approach each statement as if it were true. For a sentence to be true, every part must be "true". Pay attention to "qualifiers".
restrict or open up the possibilities of making accurate statements. More modest qualifiers, such as "sometimes, often, many, few, generally, etc", are more likely to reflect a true statement, sentence, or answer. Stricter qualifiers, such as "always" or "never", often reflect a false statement, sentence, or answer. Don't let "negatives" confuse you. Watch for statements with double negatives. Pay attention to "absolute" qualifiers.
which do not allow for exceptions imply that the statement must be true 100% of time. In most cases, statements that contain absolute qualifiers are false. Thoroughly examine long sentences and statements. Make an educated guess. Longer statements may be false. Reason statements tend to be false. Budget your time.
Read the statements carefully. Encircle of your chosen answer. 1.
