 These are a couple of useful strategy that can help you do better on your next PSAT exam.

 It’s important to start studying for the PSATs a few days, or maybe even a week before the exam. This way if you run into problems that you need help on you can ask someone and be sure of your answers on the test.

 We all know that when studying for a test it’s better to study a little each day rather than cram the night before. Well, the same rule applies to PSAT.

 If you know that you’re great at English, but need some work on math, it’s probably a better idea to spend more time studying for the mathematics part of the exam instead of the English.

 After you’ve studied enough and feel that you are comfortable with the information, review with a friend in order to check if there’s anything you need to focus on in particular.

 It’s important that you feel rested and ready to take the test. Your not going to get such a great score if you’re falling asleep.

 Make sure you eat a balanced meal before you go to the exam, you won’t be able to focus on the questions if you’re thinking of food.

 Make sure that when you go to the test you have at least two # 2 pencils, and a calculator for the math problems. (Make sure that your calculator has full batteries)

 If you’ve followed all the above strategies you’re ready for the test, so just relax and don’t get stressed out.

 Don’t become too hasty and choose the first answer that fits. There many be another answer that fits even better than the one you chose.

 It’s important that you don’t spend too much time on one problem. If a problem is giving you trouble, go do the other ones, and if you have time, come back and complete it.
