Test Preparation

"He who opens a school door,
closes a prison"
- Victor Hugo
French
To do well on tests you must first learn the material,
and then review it before the test.
These are techniques to better understand your material:
Learning
Take good notes in your class lectures and textbooks
See the Guides on Taking notes in Lectures
(and Taking notes from a textbook!)
Review your notes soon after class/lecture
Review notes briefly before the next class
Schedule some time at the end of the week for a longer review
Reviewing
Take good notes
about as your teacher tells you what will be on the test
Organize your notes, texts, and assignments
according to what will be on the test
Estimate the hours you'll need to review materials
Draw up a schedule
that blocks units of time and material
Test yourself on the material
Finish your studying the day before the exam
