We have found out that all solution tools can be categorized as either Precise, Alternative, or Logical. That’s the PAL in examPAL.
-
Precise means using a specific rule, such as a grammatical rule or a formula.
-
Logical means using some general logic, such as that the diameter is the largest chord in a circle.
-
Alternative means using tools that can give us the correct answer indirectly, such as tools for eliminating the wrong answers or the use of symmetry in Geometry.
When you practice questions, ask yourself how you could have known in advance which tool would give you the correct answer. If you’re not sure, we can teach you how.
