***** Strategies to good testing******
Test Taking Strategies: 1. Get plenty of sleep the night before and eat a healthy breakfast so that you are alert. 2. Do practice questions and tests so that you have an idea what to expect. 3. Pace yourself: do not spend too much time on a question you don't know. Move on and come back to it. 4. Read the directions for each test carefully. 5. Answer ALL questions. There is no penalty for guessing 6. Review your work; check to make sure you marked all responses and look over each question. 7. Take deep breaths if you get anxious. 8. Remember: you can take this test as many times as you need; it's not the end of the world if you don't do well the first time!
