chose or read first is correct, if you have not read all the provided answer, it´s most probably incorrect.
5. Do not change an answer to a question because 75% of the time the first answer you chose is the correct answer. Only change an answer to
a question if you are 100% certain that the previously chosen answer is incorrect.
