How will I take the test? On a computer Not only is it eco-friendly, but you will be able to check with your teacher for your score by the next day! Here is what it will look like: wh2/EOCwh203.htm

How long do I have? 1 1/2 hours Many of you will most likely finish early, so bring a book or something else to keep you occupied—you will NOT be allowed to use an iPod or a phone after you are finished Seriously! You cannot even have one in your pocket.

Some tips: Look for clues in the question, as well as any images or maps that are part of the question Avoid careless mistakes- don’t rush! You know more than you think you do! Be confident, but also be sure to study! Take your time and practice the skills we worked on all year: –Read the question carefully –Eliminate the wrong choices –Pick the best answer from what is left
