How to Score Higher on the Bing News Quiz
These six habits will raise your score without eating up your day:
Read one full article a day
Skimming gives you the topic; a full story gives you the details the quiz often asks about.
Watch for names, places and numbers
News quiz questions love specifics: who said it, where it happened, when, and how much.
Cross-check big breaking stories
Glance at a second source, such as BBC News, for major headlines to catch corrections and missing context.
Pace yourself at about 30 seconds a question
With 300 seconds for 10 questions, answer the ones you know quickly and save your time for the tricky ones.
Make it a daily routine
Pair the quiz with your morning coffee or lunch break. A few minutes every day beats one long session a week.
