This guide to preparing for, and taking, examinations was designed for college students. The booklet recommends a series of techniques for proper preparation. These include making a semester, or quarter, study plan; and appropriate scheduling of study time and determination of a study area. Good review techniques involve planning a systematic review, summarizing text and class notes, and reviewing material with classmates. The pre-exam hours should be well organized to allow ample rest, adequate time to arrive at testing site, and time to eat a sensible meal. The student's approach to the exam should be planned. Directions and test items should be read carefully, jotting down key words and phrases from memory. The student should begin with the easiest questions and write neatly and legibly. A review of corrected exam papers will enable a student to make each exam a learning experience. Samples of various types of test items are included. (DWH)
