Do not touch the answer sheet before you have done the answers on the actual paper.
Rule no one to intelligent guessing is temporarily leave the ones you do not know out, if as soon as you see the question, you realize you do not know the answer, do the next question.
In the EU pre selection test it could be the case that the answer will lie hidden in another question, or another question will remind you of the answer.
As soon as you finished the questions you know, start going through the EU pre selection test. Out of the four answers, one answer will generally be obviously wrong. So that leaves you with three correct answers. If two of the three remaining are similar, choose one of them. Usually an EPSO Examiner will try to test the detail of your knowledge so he would put quasi exact answers to try and confuse you. But be careful if two answers say completely the same thing, then they are obviously wrong, you cannot have two correct answers.
When three out of four answers are very similar, the examiner is playing around with the same idea in three different ways. Then there is a very good
chance that the correct answer lays within that group. The concept is the examiner would not waste three alternatives; he would like to test the depth of your knowledge.
In case the answer are playing with words i.e. they use very similar words, again the EU pre-selection examiner is trying to test the depth of your
knowledge, pick one in that group.
In case all fails say the answer exactly after the question and check which one make the most sense, if it still does not work choose the longer answer
the examiner may have used more words to write the correct answer.
Follow this advice and you will be closer to your EU Institution Job.
