Tackling test Questions! |

Multiple choice: Read all the answers before marking your choice. Remember, your first instinct is usually best-so don't change your answers unless you're sure.
True/false: Look for words such as never, always, all and none. They're usually in false answer. Words like may or often are generally found in true answers.
Essay: Read essay questions at least twice. Then, make a list of important thoughts, or key points, about questions before writing your essay. Read through the finished essay to be sure you've included all your key points. Check spelling, capitalization, and punctuation. |
