Revisit the questions you answered at the beginning of the chapter, and consider one option you learned in this chapter that might change your answer to one of them.
How confident are you in your skills at preparing for and taking tests? Take this quick survey to figure it out, ranking questions on a scale of 1–4, 1 meaning “least like me” and 4 meaning “most like me.”
- I believe I set aside enough time to prepare for tests.
- If I don’t set aside enough time, or if life gets in the way, I can usually cram and get similar results.
- I prefer to pull all-nighters. The adrenaline and urgency help me remember what I need come test time.
- I study my notes, highlight book passages, and use flash cards, but I still don’t feel like I’m as successful as I should be on tests.
