My question is you know how some profs will put trick answers...like if you are between 2 answers, one direct, and one that you get by accounting for the trick, its better to pick the 2nd one.

is the OAT tricky? in the sense that if I am ever between 2 answers, is it better to go with the direct one, or the one that I think i get after solving the trick?

thanks 🙂 and good luck and congrats to all you new optos~

I didn't think the OAT had tricky questions on it.

No trick in Science section. RC is all tricky from my point of view, only God knows the answer to some of those questions.

I feel the exact same way! to this day i swear they didn't offer me the correct answer on one of the RC questions and many of the others just didnt make sense.

Study after study after study has shown that on standardized tests, the LONGEST answer is correct 40% of the time. When in doubt, go with the LONGEST answer.
