| Test prep for 11-7 test |
As the semester continues to progress, I find myself coming face to face with my second wave of tests.
YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!!! It is time to take action and prepare. I'm pulling out the
20 minute test prep for two of my classes I have exams next week in, my
Ist 195 class and my
History 101 class. This is a strategy that I am very familiar with and one that I enjoy using. I use it because it keeps me organized when it comes to studying because I am a visual learner also because it is easy to use.
After each lecture I would take
20 minutes to write down questions from the notes that I got in class. Since this is my second test in my Ist I know my professors style of question asking. I took
advantage of this and made my questions the same way he would go about asking them to me. After the questions are made I leave them in my notebook for when I
review all the material I got at the end of the week. When it comes time to review at the end of the week I
answer my questions so I can see if I remember the material and I
correct any mistakes I made. This has been a useful strategy for me also because I am using it for my test exam project.

I also used the 20 test prep for my most recent
History 101 class. This is a class I like to type my notes out for because he goes so quickly through his slides in class and I type quicker than I write. I took the same steps I did with IST. I
would take notes in class then I would write down the questions when I get time after my lecture. I would then review all the questions then answer them when I review at the end of the week.
I honestly love 20 minute test prep because its useful for classes you want to study for, but the
material is too difficult to understand. Its also useful for
evaluating yourself to see if you retained any information from your lectures.
Seeing how helpful your 20 minute test strategy is makes me want to try using it in my PHY 212 course as that is a class I have a hard time understanding the material. Retaining the information from lecture material is important and this strategy helps to do just that.
ReplyDeleteI think this is a good strategy as long as you keep using it. By the time you have your test you will be able to have a practice test and will not have to cram because you have been continuously studying. Keep doing this for you classes and you'll be prepared and have all the information known!
ReplyDeleteI think it's great that you are continuing to use the 20 minute Test Prep strategy! I'm sure if you consistently keep this up you will be prepared for all of your upcoming exams.
