If you’ve ever answered a question based on what must have happened — instead of what the question actually says — this episode fixes one of the most common PSI exam traps.
The South Carolina PSI exam is a closed system. You are only allowed to use the facts given in the question. When you add assumptions, relationships, or missing details, you’re answering a different question than the one being asked.
In this episode, you’ll learn why PSI intentionally leaves out information, how adding facts pulls you toward the wrong answer, and the simple rule you can use to stay inside the question every time.
This episode trains you to stop solving imaginary problems and start choosing based only on what the exam gives you — which immediately improves accuracy.
If you want this organized in one place, the free South Carolina exam study guide is linked in the show notes.
