Study Strategies- True/False Questions

True or False Test
Every part of a true sentence must be (true).
If any one part of the sentence is false, the whole sentence is false despite many other true statements.

Pay close attention to negatives, qualifiers, absolutes, and long strings of statements.
Negatives can be Confusing
If the question contains negatives, as no, not, (can not) drop the negative and read what remains. Decide whether that sentence is true or false. If it is true, it's opposite, or negative, it's usually false.

Qualifiers are words that Restrict or open up General Statements
Words like (sometimes, often, frequently, ordinarily, generally) open up the possibilities of making accurate statements. They make more modest claims, are more likely to reflect reality, and usually indicate true answers.

Absolute words restrict possibilities, "No, never, none, always, every, entirely, only" imply the statement must be true 100% of the time and usually indicate " False" answer.

Long sentences often include groupss of words sit off by punctuation. Pay attention to the " truth" of each of these phases. If one is false, it usually indicates a "false" answer.
