tactics
-------

1. between each conversation theirs is an eight-second pause. this may not sound like a long time, but you can actually accomplish quite a bit during this pause. you need to mark the answer for the item that you just heard and then preview the next item. previewing the item consists of reading the question -- this tells you what to listen for -- and of quickly looking over the four answer choices.

2. while listening to the conversation, keep your eyes on the answer choices. don"t close your eyes or look away. try to evaluate the four choices as you airs listening.

3. remember that distractors are sometimes mentioned in the conversations but are not answers to the question. don"t choose an answer just because you hear a word or two from the answer in the conversation.

4. if the correct answer is not obvious, try to eliminate answers that seem to be incorrect. if more than one answer choice is left, take a guess.

5. mark your answers as quickly as possible so that you can preview the next item.

6. never leave any answers blank. if you are not sure, always guess.
