Test Taking Strategies

Please read every question and not just mark an answer

Read questions FIRST before reading a passage/paragraph so you know what information to look for.

Write on your testing booklet – cross off answers you know are wrong.

Test Taking Strategies Time Management – Try your best to answer

every question in each section.

Pace yourself – if there is a question you are not sure of or would like to spend more time on, star it and go back after you have finished all the other questions. (It is more important to get a chance to answer all the questions vs. making sure you get that ONE right!)
