Sooner or later, most students are to take some form of English exami?nations. Often the more successful students are better prepared. However, sometimes students who do well have better test-taking skills. These abili?ties really have nothing'to do with understanding English better. They are skills that make taking the test easier, and therefore provide better results.

Here are some very important—and often ignored―guidelines to taking a test successfully.

Do not insist on completing each question before going to the next. This is extremely important. Remember one question raay only be worth one point! You will become nervous when you fail to find out its answer, making you lose your concentration and leading to worse results. However, answering the questions you are sur| you know the answers can make us more relaxed and confident. 

Go through the test a second time working out the answers to more dif?ficult questions. Sometimes questions asked are answered in later questions asking for different things.

Usually a strong first impulse (冲动)means we know the answer and we don't really have to think about it too much, Going back to think about it usually makes you unsure and often causes a mistake. This is very common, so be very careful !

If you don't know the answer, write something. If you are answering a 4 possibility multiple choice question you will still have a 25% chance of be?ing correct!

Taking a test is as much for you as is for your teacher, so never cheat. If you cheat, you don't help yourself in the long run.
