TIPS FOR PART ONE
Take notes, but also LISTEN!
Ask yourself: What is the main idea of the passage?
Big ideas are more important than specific details.
Don’t get distracted by words you don’t know.
Don’t get distracted by choices you don’t understand (and don’t automatically pick them!)
Eliminate answers you know are wrong and then make an educated guess.
Do not leave any questions blank!
