Hmmm...I don't think there's a "trick," short of just hitting the books and doing lots of practice questions. Kaplan has a few tips on multiple choice questions, like figuring out the answer after reading the question but BEFORE looking at the answer choices - less chance of being distracted by the wrong answer that way. Check out their website (I think these tips are freely accessible).
I really think the key to these standardized tests (SAT, MCAT, USMLE, ABSITE, etc.) is just to study hard and do lots and lots of practice questions to get used to the feel of the question style, as well as build up your stamina.
