                                         Part 3

Identify key words.
This helps you focus on the main idea of challenging questions.
Rephrase difficult questions.
To understand questions better, rewrite them in your own words. Be careful not to change the meaning.
Organize your thoughts before you write.
Take time to organize your responses to short-answer and essay questions. You’ll reduce the time you need to revise.
Write neatly.
Be sure you don’t lose points on answers the teacher can’t read.
Use all the time you’re given.
If you finish early, don’t leave. Use the extra time to proofread and review your answers.

                Choose The Right!!!

Exam Day: Survival Tips (Part 2)


        Exam Day: Survival Tips

                  Test-Taking

                                        Part 2

During the Test
Read the Directions.
It’s important that you follow the instructions exactly. For example, some questions may have more than one correct answer.
Answer easy questions first.
Doing this can jog your memory about useful facts. You may also come cross information that can help you with other questions.
Answer every question.
Unless there is a penalty for wrong answer, try to answer every question; you may be able to get partial credit for those you begin but don’t complete correctly.
Ask questions.
If a question isn’t clear, talk to your teacher. If that’s not possible, explain your answer in the margin.
