❤️🖤Hello Saints❤️🖤! Since finals are coming around, here are some Test Preparation tips🍎!

-Create a Pretest Checklist: Learn about the exam and what you'll need to be prepared

-Get Organized: Begin reviewing early to become familiar with the information. Consider setting up a study plan prior to each exam. Record blocks of time and specific tasks to accomplish during this time. This will help you combat procrastination and the need to cram.

-Create a "five-day study plan": Group all review materials in meaningful units of chapters, lecture-notes, assignments, or projects.

-Review with a group of fellow students to cover important material you may overlook on your own.

-Create a tool bag of review aids that work best for you. These could be study checklists, summary or quiz notes, and visual mappings of key concepts, recordings onto audiotape, flashcards, or outlines.

-Make sure to get plenty of rest the night before the exam and drink plenty of water to hydrate your brain and increase your thinking power.

✏️📓Test Preparation:

*Exams show a professor how much you've learned. Find out as much as you can about the exam, study and review the material over a period of time, pace yourself during the exam, and always go over your graded exam with your proffesor.*

📝Pretest Checklist:

1️⃣ Get Organized! Consider setting up a study plan prior to each exam. Record blocks of time and specific tasks to accomplish during this time.
2️⃣ Create a "five-day study plan" Use blocks of time on days one through four to review material and create review aids. Build in adequate break time between study sessions. Day five should be reserved for a final review of study aids that have been compiled on days one through four.
3️⃣ Give yourself practice tests before the exam. Anticipate test questions as you read through the main headings of your lecture notes and chapter reviews.
4️⃣ Review with a group of fellow students to cover important material you may have overlooked on your own.
5️⃣ Create a tool bag of review aids that best works for you. This could be checklists, summaries or quiz notes, and visual mappings or key concepts.
6️⃣ Consider meeting with a peer tutor to specifically conduct a review session for the exam.
7️⃣ Conduct major review early enough before the exam to allow time to visit the instructor during office hours if necessary.
8️⃣ Get plenty of rest the night before the exam and drink plenty of water to hydrate your brain and increase your thinking power.
