Academic Challenges

I personally have a couple of academic challenges one is I do not think you get enough time with some of the test taking.  Although with this last test it was unlimited which made it nice.  I have a hard time with test.  I do not do well on 30 minute test taking, I have that for my other class.  I freeze up on tests so it takes me longer to do but I only get a certain amount answered because of it.  I personally think if were to do our best we should be able to take as long as we need.  Trying to get what is in my head and putting it down on paper to make it sound good is a challenge that I face.

  1. Hi Rebecca, I have a system now for taking A&P tests. On Sunday morning, I re-read the whole chapter so it is fresh in my mind, then I look at the practice quiz. I get up and pace for a few minutes to get the blood running, get a glass of water, and I go right into the test while it is fresh in my mind. I have a note pad next to me, and I start at #1 and work down. If I read the question and the possible answers and have no clue, I write down the question number and move on. That way I can get through all the ones I know first. Then, I come back and work through the ones on the list. At least that way I know I have the bulk of the test done. If I have time left, I review all the questions again, especially the troublesome ones. Hope this helps!
