Preparing for and Taking Exams

General Tips for Taking Examinations

  1. Get yourself under control as the time for an exam approaches. Arrive early and make sure you've brought all needed supplies and materials.
  2. Make certain that you understand the directions for an exam before you begin. If you are unsure about the directions, ask your instructor to explain.

  4. To build your confidence, start with questions that you know best and feel most comfortable with.
