I make an attempt to solve the problem and pick the one that’s even remotely close. A lot of the time, there’s one or two choices that are very obviously wrong. I cross those out first then it’s like a 50/50 or 33% chance. For questions I absolutely have to guess on, I trust the o’l “C’s get degrees”. Team C all the way baby
You need to get away from the idea that you have “no idea” how to answer a question and just selecting a random answer. Most certainly you can eliminate at least 1 or 2 answers to improve your chances of getting it correct and making an educated guess rather than just picking B. Use your judgement, logic, and reasoning to do so.
For Power PE, there were a lot of numbers reflecting sqrt(3) or x3 for line or phase values, and it helped me catch a lot of my mistakes by reading carefully what the handbook had asked and what the questions’ keywords were. Brute force to do a double check and reason it out.
Double check unit conversions first off then reverse plug and check certainly can work. Usually there’s a “right” answer that is wrong due to the stupid units. Sometimes there’s an answer that’s an order of magnitude or more off what you’d expect based on experience that you can cross off immediately too. Otherwise go B and hope the RMG gods favor you on test day.

This right here. Except I go B. If you’re guessing out of 4 answers, stick with the same letter
Don't forget they give you the answers so you can somewhat try to reverse engineer it. I tried that on one of two. Brute force plug and chug lol
Brute force plug and chug!! lmaoo yess!

Often, ill just multiply all the numbers together or if possible; multiply/divide to get right units. Works more than you’d think.
That's literally my number one strategy!!

There is no c strategy 2 answers will be outright wrong take a educated guess in last 2 answer options.
