Top 5 Test Taking Strategies:
- Get lots of sleep the nights before leading up to the test
- Eat a fully breakfast and drinks lots of water
- If you don’t know the answer, be sure to guess. Leave no blanks!
- Take your time! If you finish early, go back and check your work
- Don’t try anything new! For example, if you don’t usually drink energy drinks, don’t drink one the day of the test!
