When you get a question wrong you haven't just missed the correct answer, but have actively chosen a wrong answer. What makes a trap answer so alluring? Often a bad answer would be correct if allowed an assumption that's just a step too far. Learn to effectively scrutinize attractive answer choices, and stop feeding trap answers the assumptions they crave! The class does one question together as a warm up. After that, students will get 2-3 minutes to attempt each question on their own before reviewing with the instructor.
