Last Days Before the Test

by CAREY33 » Fri Apr 15, 2016 4:08 pm
Any tips for what type of studying I should be doing the last few days before the test? Specifically what, if anything, should I do the day before the test and the day of the test? My test is Monday afternoon.

I just completed a practice exam which I am about to review.

Hi CAREY33,

While it might be tempting to try to 'cram' in these last few days (especially since it's the weekend), you really should NOT do that. Cramming for these types of Exams is almost never beneficial - and you run the risk of 'burnout' before Test Day, which is something that you have to try to avoid. You'll be better served sticking to light review and practice. Try to get some extra rest and go into Test Day calm and ready to work hard for the full 4 hours.
