The
night before your test is not the time to begin preparing for your test. The
best policy is to read over your notes the afternoon before your test and to get
a good nights sleep the night before the test.
If you've been paying attention all semester, reviewing your notes will be a
simple matter of reviewing what you already know, not learning something new.
If
you have no idea what the correct answer is for a question, guess. This is
particularly true if the test is multiple-choice, you may not know why you think
answer 3 is correct but it may be that subconsciously your brain knows the right
answer and just isn't letting you know that. When you've finished your test, you
back through and re-read any of the questions that you thought were impossible,
your brain may decide to cooperate this time. And remember, sometimes a question
is answered by another question within the test itself. Look for these hidden
answers.
