Test+Taking+Strategies


 * Test Taking strageties:**

1: Underline keywords and phrases. example: john had 16 apples, then he __added__ five more.

2:FOLLOW YOUR GUT INSTINCT. if you know the answer is true do not change it.

3:Try to answer the question without going through the options. ex: the first president of the united states: a.)Tupac b.)Eminem c.)George Washington the answer will obviously be //c.// 4: consider all the options. Do not select one that looks good and forget to read the others. example: who wrote common sense?  a.)shakspire b.)walt whitman c.)shakira d.)thomas paine

5:You can use process of elmination (POE) example: 3+3= a.) 69  ﻿ b.)6 c.)32534 d.)7

6:If after reading and the answer you get is not apparent, wait a few secound before you look at the options again. If your answer is 8 and in the options theres not that answer, just wait a few secounds and then answer it again.

7:Use scrap paper when needed.

8:try your best!

9: Relax before and during the test.



10:When done, look over your answers again. (if there's time) Your answer was probably colored in b but your answer was c. make sure you also color in the right answer (that u think)
