1.Come with good preparation and early.
Bring all supplies you need, such as pencils, pens, calculator, dictionary, h (hand), eraser, tip ex, rulers, and others. This equipment will help to keep concentration during the exam.
2.Calm and confident.
Remind yourself that you are ready and will be doing the exam well.
3.Relax but wary.
Choose a chair or comfortable place to do the exam. Make sure you get enough room to do it. Maintain upright position.
4.Preview of exam questions first (if the exam has a time limitation)
Spend 10% of the total test time to read the exam questions in depth, mark the key words and decide how much time it takes to answer each question. Plan to solve the problem in an easy first, just about the hardest. When you read the questions, note also the ideas that appear to be used as an answer.
5.Answer exam questions strategically.
Start by answering the easy questions you know, then with the questions that have the highest value. The last question you should do is:
o The most difficult problem
o who takes the time to write the answer
o has the smallest value
6.When doing multiple choice questions, know the answers to be selected / predictable.
At start, ignore the answer that you know is wrong. Guess the answer is always an option when there is no penalty reduction in value, or when there is no answer choices that you can ignore. Do not guess an answer choice when you are not sure when the sentence reduction and value in use. Because the answer is usually the first choice will be correct, do not change it, except when you are sure you will do the correction.
7.When working on an essay test question, think about the answer before writing.
Create a framework for the short answer essay by noting first few ideas that you want to write. Then nomori these ideas to sort which ones you want to discuss it first.
8.When working on an essay exam, the main points directly responsible.
Write a sentence pokokmu in the first sentence. Use the first paragraph as an overview of your essay. Use subsequent paragraphs to discuss the main points in detail. Support your point with specific information, examples, or quotations from the text or notes.
9.Set aside 10% of your time to re-check your answer.
Check your answer; avoid the urge to immediately leave the class immediately after you answer all exam questions. Check again that you have completed all the questions. Re-read your answer to check spelling, grammar and punctuation. For answers to math, check if there was negligence (eg one decimal place). Compare the answers with the actual mathematics calculation concise.
10.Analysis of exam results.
Each exam can help you in preparing for the next exam. Decide which strategies are appropriate to you. Determine which strategies are not successful, and change. Use previous exam papers while studying for final exams.
Good luck guys!!!

I had to respond to say READ NUMBER 4 to any potential exam takers.
As a teacher it breaks my heart when students give thoughtful answers to the WRONG question.
Making sure you are answering the point the question is getting at is sooooo important and failure is the easiest way to waste your time.
Great post - hope it gets some traffic.
Are you an exam taker yourself?
