Do you have a big test coming up? We can help you get a great grade with our Test-taking tips. Lots of people struggle with tests because of test anxiety or they just don’t know how to make the best use of their time when they are taking a test. Make sure you can show how much you know when you take a test by using these techniques.
First, you may want to watch our video on How to Study for a Test here: bit.ly/2qjQFI1 Then watch this video, which is all about what to do when you actually take the test.
One of the techniques we discuss in this video is recognizing special keywords that change the meaning of a question - words like ALWAYS, NEVER, SOMETIMES, EVERY, NOT, etc. We suggest you circle or underline those words when you read a question, so you don’t accidentally answer incorrectly. Let’s collect those words in the comment section below.
And if you have another test-taking tip, please share it in the comment section so we can all be great students!
This video was made possible by the generous donations from our VIP Patrons on Patreon! Our giant thanks to Vishal Shah and Tracy Karin Prell. These two patrons have been backing us for almost a YEAR! We are so lucky to have their support.
