Mull over / Narrow down


Mull over:  pensar cuidadosamente antes de tomar uma decisão 
“Before deciding which job to accept, she said she needed a couple of days to mull over her options.”
“Whenever I have to make a big decision, I take plenty of time to mull things over.”   (www.englishclubs.com)

Narrow down: reduzir o número de possibilidades e opções 
“I was buying a new car and there were many models to choose from, but I wanted a fuel-efficient car so that narrowed down the range quite a bit.”
“Thirty people applied for the job, but after the first round of interviews we'd narrowed it down to just three.”  (www.englishclubs.com)
