Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s Test Taking Strategies #11: Timed Test – First Do The Easy Ones

Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s Test Taking Strategies #11: Timed Test – First Do The Easy Ones

Some students go in sequential order of the test and get caught up on a question. They spend extra time on that one question and then run out of time. They end up not answering the last few questions due to lack of time. Not anymore!

The trick to defeating a timed test is to work out of order. Answer the easy questions you know. Skip the hard questions or questions that will take a long time to answer. Then after you have answered all the questions you can, go back and spend the rest of your time on the challenging ones. This way a student will earn a higher test score for answering more correct answers.

Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s Test Taking Strategies #1: Multiple Choice Questions – Elimination Method

If the answer does not stand out, try the elimination method. On a separate sheet of paper write down the letters, A B C D E to coincide with the letters of the multiple choice question. Then read over the potential answers. On your paper, cross out the letters of the answers that do not make any sense. At this point you will have eliminated all accept for the correct answer or have two choices remaining. Choosing one of the remaining two will give you 50/50 odds in getting the answer correct.
