Eliminate what you know to be incorrect and make your best attempt at selecting one of the "most correct" answers that remain. If you can identify "where you are" as Andrew mentioned, the odds should be on your side.

1. Make sure you read the whole question and know what they are (and are not!) asking for.
2. Put yourself into the mindset of a "large and in charge" PM, regardless of what the power structure is for PMs in your company. That means favoring answers which are action-oriented or proactive over ones where you are "passing the buck".
3. Don't cut corners, skip processes or act with less than full transparency or integrity.
4. Focus on customer satisfaction.

Go through as many situational question/answers as possible before appearing in the exam. Saving Changes...

A common approach on long (situational) question is the read the last part first i.e. the actual question. Typically the question would go - 'Peter and John have blonde hair and yesterday Peter took Johns lunch.' and then end with - 'will they still be friends?'. Then you read the whole question. What this allows you to do is to easily identify and eliminate the fluff that is not relevant to the question. The fact that they have blonde hair has no bearing on the actual question.
Then eliminate the obvious wrong options, there are normally two. Saving Changes...
