Tips from our instructor on strategic approaches to answering CMA exam questions effectively
The trainer will present an effective approach to managing multiple-choice questions (MCQs), especially in examinations like the CMA. You may often find that MCQs encompass a vast amount of information, some of which may not even be relevant to the subject at hand. This can be confusing and lead to time inefficiency.
The "Read From Down" Strategy
The fundamental concept here is to commence by reading the actual question located at the end of the provided information, before delving into the options or even the supplementary details presented at the beginning. Here’s the step-by-step process:
- Read the Last Sentence First: Typically, this is where the actual question is situated. Familiarizing yourself with the question upfront aids in clarifying what specific information you should seek within the problem statement.
- Identify What's Needed: After grasping the question, swiftly review the preceding information to extract only the essential details needed to address the question. You may find that there is often an abundance of extraneous information included, which you can now disregard.
- Go Through Choices: Armed with the essential information, carefully examine the available answer choices.
- Eliminate and Choose: Employ the process of elimination to eliminate the least probable options, and subsequently make an informed selection from the remaining choices.
- Time Management: This approach also aids in efficient time management. By promptly discerning your requirements, you reserve more time for addressing other questions that might necessitate more thorough examination.
Why This Strategy Works
- • Clarity: Anticipating the question in advance assists in clarifying your search objective, simplifying the process of locating the essential information.
- • Time-Saving: By filtering out extraneous details, you can respond more swiftly, leaving additional time for addressing other questions.
- • Focus: This approach aids in sustaining concentration on critical aspects, thereby diminishing the likelihood of being misled by distractors or irrelevant information.
The instructor highly advises implementing this strategy during your practice papers and mock exams. The greater your practice, the more seamlessly it will integrate into your routine, ultimately leading to improved performance in the actual examination.
The "Review Incomplete" Strategy
The concept here involves systematically tackling the 100 MCQs in stages, categorizing them by difficulty levels. Instead of merely flagging questions, we will utilize the “Review Incomplete” feature.
First Stage: Easy Questions
- Scan Through: Rapidly glance over all the questions to pinpoint those that appear easy to you.
- Answer and Move On: Address these straightforward questions without delay.
- Click 'Review Incomplete': Following the completion of the easy questions, choose the 'Review Incomplete' option. The software will automatically display the unanswered questions for your attention.
Second Stage: Medium Difficulty Questions
- Tackle the Medium Ones: Armed with the list of unanswered questions, turn your attention to the questions of moderate difficulty.
- Answer: Dedicate ample time to solve these questions. You should still have enough time left, considering that you've already addressed the easier ones.
- Click 'Review Incomplete' Again: After you've finished addressing the medium-level questions, choose the 'Review Incomplete' option again to review the remaining questions.
Third Stage: Tough Questions
- Last Stretch: At this point, only the challenging questions remain on your list. Dedicate your time to solving them to the best of your ability.
- Proceed to Essay Questions: By following this approach, you should be able to complete the multiple-choice questions efficiently and accumulate a sufficient score to access the essay questions, which hold equal significance in determining your overall score.
Benefits of This Strategy
- • Streamlined Review: The 'Review Incomplete' feature takes care of organizing unanswered questions on your behalf, eliminating the need for additional effort and saving valuable time.
- • Time Management: Prioritizing questions based on their level of difficulty ensures that you secure marks on all the questions you find easy, ultimately reaching the critical threshold of 50 correct questions required to access the essay section.
- • Conserves Mental Energy: Beginning with simpler questions prevents mental exhaustion when you later confront more challenging problems.
Additional Tips for Success
- Look for Traps: Exercise caution when encountering absolute terms such as "always," "never," "all," and the like, as they are often intended to deceive. Maintain a critical mindset and read meticulously.
- Time Management Benchmarks: Calculate your allotted time for each question by dividing your total exam duration by the number of questions. Strive to adhere as closely as possible to this time limit for each question.
- 3. Passing Strategy:
• First Pass: Begin by addressing questions you have confidence in.
- • Second Pass: Revisit questions that you find uncertain and allocate additional time for in-depth analysis.
- • Final Review: If time permits, conduct a comprehensive review to validate all your answers.
Why Practice These Strategies?
- • Enhanced Focus: You'll possess a precise target, conserving both time and mental energy.
- • Efficient Time Use: Your time is primarily dedicated to answering questions rather than deliberating over which ones to address.
- • Reduced Stress: Implementing a systematic approach can significantly alleviate test-related anxiety, rendering the experience more manageable.
