Students can improve the outcome on any test by first analyzing their attitudes, preparation methods, and behaviors related to testing. Some specific test-taking skills include identifying error patterns (knowing why the answer selected is wrong); reading the questions carefully before selecting an answer; improving vocabulary in the area of content being tested; minimizing inferences about the questions or options; identifying priorities correctly; and knowing the material through regular study and preparation.
