June 2007, Game 3, Question 16
Summary
The segment focuses on strategies for tackling local and partial solution questions on the GRE, specifically through the lens of a question asking for an accurate list of spaces in weeks four and five.
- Local questions are identified by their initiation with 'if', indicating a specific scenario to be considered.
- Partial solution questions narrow the focus to a subset of the overall problem, in this case, specific weeks rather than the entire timeline.
- Rewriting answers onto scratch paper, incorporating rules to eliminate incorrect options, is highlighted as an effective strategy.
- Applying specific rules related to the arrangement of elements can systematically exclude wrong answer choices.
- The correct answer is deduced through a process of elimination and understanding the placement rules of elements within the given scenario.
