Test Taking Strategies One week before the BIG day:  Gather all material/ lecture notes  Homework Assignments, old quizzes  Develop adequate study groups Each Day:  Divide material into portions  Study some of the material  Go over what has been study and ADD more  Take any practice exams available!

The Night Before!  Take care of any issue that may cause distractions  Don’t pull all-nighters/ Get enough rest (6-8 hrs)  Just review, no cramming  Pack testing materials (pencils, scantron, snack)

Exam Day!  Eat a balanced breakfast  Don’t try to cram info or learn new info: only confuses what your brain already knows  GO TO EXAM CONFIDENTLY!

Timed Exams  If the test is timed, don’t spend to much time on one question  Move on to the easier questions/go back to those skipped  Don’t change 1 st answer options UNLESS absolutely positive

You’re Almost Done!  If you have time left over, RECHECK EXAM  DON’T change answers!  YOUR 1 ST ANSWER CHOICE IS USUALLY RIGHT!  Don’t worry, you are not meant to know every answer on the EXAM. They are built to challenge your scope of knowledge.

After the Exam  LET IT GO!!  Treat Yourself (relax, go to the beach, etc.)  When exam is returned go over missed material and ASK questions.  You do not want to make the same mistakes on the next exam. Talk to the professor and ask for study tips, etc.
