Test Taking
Tips
 | Get
plenty of sleep the night before the test.
|
 | Eat
a good breakfast each morning (Orange juice is a good brain food.).
|
 | Be
on time and alert.
|
 | If
you wear glasses, be sure to have them and wear them.
|
 | Don’t
rush through the test, but don’t spend too much time on any one
question.
|
 | If
you finish early, check back over your answers on that section only.
|
 | If
you don’t know an answer make your best, reasonable guess.
|
 | Don’t
panic! Try to tackle each
question one at a time rather than thinking about the whole test at
once.
