Test-Taking Tips for the Student
Students: Use these tips to help you prepare for the test.
  • Develop a positive attitude. If you do your best at this test you have done well, there is no “pass” or “fail” as the test is simply to give you teacher an idea of where you are at…
  • Get a good night’s sleep the night before the test.
  • Eat a good breakfast (and lunch, if your test is in the afternoon).
  • Ask questions if you don’t understand what to do.
  • Before you read a selection on the test, preview the questions that follow it to help focus your reading.
  • After reading a selection, read the entire question and all the answer choices.
  • Try to analyze what the question is really asking.
  • Slow down and check your answers.
  • Pace yourself. If you come to a difficult passage or set of questions, it may be better to skip it and go on, then come back and really focus on the difficult section.
  • This is not a timed test. Take the time you need to finish the test.
