Wrong answer choices on Reading Comprehension GMAT questions are designed to include words, phrases, and ideas from the passage. This means that many wrong answer choices look right, since we can find "evidence" for them in the text. We can only successfully eliminate the answer if we are careful to read and understand the context of the related portion of the passage, which is 1) easy to mess up and 2) tremendously time consuming. To bypass these wrong answer traps altogether, we can use one of the most valuable GMAT Reading Comprehension tips: make a prediction before looking at the answer choices.
