Step Up Academy’s Test-Writing Tips:
Start Early and Don’t Cram.
Last minute studying leads to more anxiety. Start studying early to avoid this kind of stress.
Plan Out a Study Schedule.
Most tests cover a range of topics. Create a schedule and space out the information you need to study.
Clarify Expectations with the Teacher.
Ask questions and make sure you know exactly what you need to study!
Review All the Information and Use Visual Aids.
Use colours, webs, charts, tables and anything else to help you remember the information.
Complete a Practice Test or Questions.
A little cliche but we all know: “practice makes perfect.”
Eat Well.
Yes. This is an important tip as well. Put good food in your body to make sure you feel good when studying and writing a test.”
Sleep Well.
Sleep helps you retain information.
Get to the Test Early.
Rushing in and running late also contribute to test anxiety. Arrive early, be prepared and set yourself up for success!
