Getting Ready for the Test

The final preparation is never over…………Take a quick look how to get ready for the test!!
For taking a Practice Test you will need:

- A quiet room.
- A Stopwatch or a watch with a second hand.
- Approximately one hour and forty-five minutes of uninterrupted time.

THEN:
- Use only the amount of time actually allotted for each section.
- Do not stop and start; take the entire test section in one sitting.
- Do not mark in the test booklet.
- Do not forget to mark your guessing letter for any question you’ve left blank at the end of each section. You must mark one answer for every question.

As you practice, pay attention to what you got right and what you got wrong. This will help you improve the next time you practice.

MISTAKES:
- Look up vocabulary words you don’t know.
- Stupid mistakes: answer sheet fumbles
- Impatience - didn’t bother to read through all of the answer choices before choosing the answer.
- Misunderstanding the question - you may have to read a question 2 or 3 times before understanding it.
- Lucky guesses - Process Of Elimination (POE) but next time, use the reasons you chose the answers you did.
- Other wrong answers - try to discover if you could have eliminated an answer or two

Pacing Problems -
- do not fall behind on the Listening Section
- do not forget the Two-Pass System
- do not get stuck on any one question in reading comprehension
