Test Taking Strategies and Study Skills
"This book is arranged in five sections for a total of 20 chapters. The chapters take you step-by-step through the process of becoming a master student and test taker. Each chapter ends with a series of review exercises. These help you reinforce and extend what you've learned. The exercises include true-false, fill-in-the-blank, and multiple-choice test items, because these are most often tested in high-pressure exams.
Here's how to use this book:
Option 1
Read through the book from beginning to end as you would any book.
Complete all the exercises at the end of each chapter to assess your progress. This gives you even more practice with test taking.
Option 2
Pick and choose the chapters you wish to read, and read them in any order you like.
Skim the exercises to find the ones that help you learn more about the areas in which you need improvement.
Option 3
Use the book as a study guide immediately before and after major tests. Read and reread the chapters you need the most.
Complete the exercises that directly match the types of tests you are taking now or plan to take in the near future."
