Here is some help! We suggest going over the questions several times. You should do this a number of times until you feel comfortable with all questions.
Time is the single most common fault that all test takers have trouble with. If you are familar with these study questions and know them well you will save time without knowing it.
Make sure you pace yourself during the test. Keep track of how much time you have used not how much is left.
Usually two choices can be eliminated from each question.
If you can not eliminate any answers skip this question and come back to it.
When required to read a passage such as in the lab questions you should scan/skim the passage to get a vague impression then read the questions. You will be surprised at how some answers come to you very quickly.
Do not guess. Eliminate 1-2 choices then "pick" out the best choice. You should be willing to bet money on this choice.
Scientific sounding answers are better than slang sounding answers.
Avoid extreme statements such as answers with these key words always...never...completely...
If the answers contain two answers that are opposite from each other then one of these is usually correct.

We have a comfortable 3 bed home in a leafy London suburb, looking for a U.S. home exchange during July/August this summer, 2003. Car exchange available. We are High school Heads of Department and experienced house exchangers. Hope to hear from you. Please copy to friends who may be interested. Thanks.
I am a teacher in Augusta, Georgia (USA). Would any of you be interested in participating in an international postcard exchange OR would you be willing to host our FLAT STANLEY? Please let me know... your help would be greatly appreciated!
As an author and critic who writes frequently about national educational issues, I have been following for some years educational policymaking in and around Boise and the state of Idaho. I have been fortunate to travel across the country talking to teachers, parents, school administrators and others confronting these issues.
In a sense, Idhao has been removed from the testing and accountability crusade sweeping the nation over the past several years. But that is about to change -- with a vengeance -- if the State Board of Education approves a new plan to add Idaho to the growing list of states that have adopted high school "exit" tests as the main gatekeeper to a high school diploma in this state.
My essay, "Idaho's High-Stakes Testing Gamble," is aimed at readers in Idaho, but I think the state's experience is instructive to those in other states as well, an object lesson in the old adage, "If it ain't broke, then fix it anyway."
