TOPIC: Confused by All the Different Answer Choices

Has anyone else noticed that sometimes on practice questions, you can narrow it down to two choices that both seem almost right? I'm losing a lot of points this way. I understand the concepts individually, but I think I'm struggling with the "next best step" or "what should the PM do FIRST" type of questions. The nuances between the two top answers are killing me!

What's the best way to improve on this? Is it just grinding through more questions and reading the explanations carefully, or is there a specific technique you used to dissect these tricky scenarios?
