Open Book Tests1. Open book tests are usually the toughest tests. Teachers make these tests difficult because you are using your book and, possibly, other resources.
2. To prepare for an open book test:
-Spend the same amount or more time preparing for this test as you would for any other test.
-Familiarize yourself with the organization of the chapters covered on the test.
-If allowed, mark important charts, summaries, tables, or illustrations with colored paper clips, post-it notes, or bookmarks.
-With a pencil, underline important facts, formulas, keywords, etc.
-If allowed, write down important information, formulas, and facts on a sticky note or index card so you don't have to spend time searching for information.
-If allowed, bring your notes and any other resources that would help you complete the test.
3. First, answer any questions you know without using your book. Don't waste time looking up answers you already know. Then, use your book to locate the remainder of the answers.
Oral Tests
1. Know what topics will be covered.
2. Prepare for an oral test as thoroughly as you would prepare for any other type of test.
3. Develop questions and answers that you assume will be on the test and practice your oral responses to these questions with someone.
4. Prior to taking an oral test in a foreign language, record your responses so that you can check for proper pronunciation.
5. During an oral exam, listen carefully to the questions. If you don't understand a question, ask the teacher to repeat or clarify.
