Some test taking tips!


Be early.  Start studying for tests long before the day of the test.  Study early, completely, actively.  Have all of your materials at hand, well organized.  Study in short periods.  Don’t try to cram it all into one night of studying.  It won’t work.  Quiz yourself.  Ask your study buddy to quiz you, too.  Return the favor.
