Technique tip: Pay attention to details
Game on. You’re about to take the test. Here are a few best-practices tips that many top achievers swear by:
• Put your name on top of the test. No-duh. You’d be shocked to learn that many students lose out on earning credit for tests they took because their tests fell into the black hole of anonymity.
• Slow down and carefully read the instructions before you begin.
• If there are multiple choice options, cross off the ones that don’t make sense
• There might be more than one question per line. Cross off the instructions as you progress
• If you are unsure about a question. Spend no more than one minute thinking about it until you progress to the next. Go back to the ones you missed after you finished the ones you know.
