Jason McCloskey used to be in seventh grade. He took a class on study skills and learned that true/false tests can sometimes telegraph the correct answers. For example, statements that make superlative or extreme claims are often false. Assertions about specific details are true more often than not, but test-takers should be on their guard for subtle alterations or substitutions of facts. Given the 50/50 chance of responding correctly, never leave a question unanswered, as it has a 100% probability of being wrong. This is useful information to have. [email]
