Test-Taking

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 writing.

Take time to organize your response to short answers 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 are given.

If you finish early don’t leave. Use the extra times to proof read and review your answers.

Choose the Right!!!
