What always helps me is knowing that there is only one correct answer and four incorrect answer.....not sort of wrong.....totally, categorically wrong.
Go back and reread the stimulus and try and find where one of your remaining answers is faulty. It’s there you just gotta find it.
Move on come back later, don't get stuck in a time trap. Your brain continues to process information even as you're working on new problems and will likely solve it by the time you get back.
Examine how the two answers differ.
Clarify the argument and the specific task the stem is giving you.
Skip and come back... let your brain toss it around while you go be productive someplace else.
chances are, you either missed something really important in the stimulus or the question is just insanely difficult. whichever is the case, i think the solution would be the same: just skip it and come back to it. time is limited, and you'd want to use it where it'll give you greater value in return.
