Tips
Sort the released questions by which law they hinge on — Gauss, Ampère, Faraday — and work them in those groups rather than paper by paper. Choosing the surface or loop well is a pattern you learn by seeing many cases together.
Fix a sign convention for flux and induced current and apply it identically every time. Most lost marks in induction are sign errors, and they come from deciding the convention afresh on each question.
Check answers by limiting case: let a distance go to infinity or a charge go to zero and see whether the expression still makes sense. The rubric does not award it, but it catches errors before you commit.
