 Admission Ticket  Two No.2 pencils and soft eraser  Photo Identification  A basic calculator (OPTIONAL)

 Cell Phones  iPod, iPad, mP3  Laptops, notebook, tablet  Timers of any kind  Camera  Any recording device

 Answer the easy questions first. Mark skipped questions in your exam booklet so you may quickly return to them later.  Take educated guesses and use process of elimination.  Write in the booklet and mark wrong answers. (Do scratch work)  Make sure your answers in the test booklet correspond with the answers on your answer sheet.

 Avoid stray marks.  Mark only one answer for each question.  Skip any question if you have no idea of the answer. (You do not lose points)  Do not spend too much time on a question.  Know where the easy questions are and do them first.  Know where the hard questions are and consider omitting them. If a hard question looks easy, your answer is probably wrong.  Memorize the test directions before the day of the test.
