Learning about the layout of an test can help you when taking it. During the PSAT, I didn't know what to expect and as a result my grade wasn't as good as I wanted it to be. In class this week, we took a practice test that showed us what part of the AP test for this class will be like. It was a multiple choice test with 55 problems, and was only worth 45% of your total grade on the test. Knowing that this specific part of the test was worth less than half of your grade will make it easier to focus during the real test. By the end of taking the practice test, I had a few minutes left to spare. This tells me that when I take the real test, I can spend a few more minutes on especially hard problems. A couple days later, we graded our tests and were told the percentage of Americans that answered each question correctly. There were quite a few questions that less than half of the population answered right, which makes me feel better about the hard questions that I missed. When we went over our answers, I did the worst on the questions relating to the Dickinson poem because I misinterpreted a paragraph. Knowing this shows me my weaknesses which tells me what I need to work on to do better on the test in the future. http://www.testtakingtips.com/test/gentest.htm
