Some things that I do while test taking that really helps, 1. I glance through the entire question paper first and decide what I'll answer first and what I'd leave for last 2. I carry a cup of coffee/tea to keep me energised 3. I wear the same watch that I use when I study so that it's easier to get into the flow state 4. I never omit a question unless there's a negative marking, there's always scope to get scores 5. I listen to a hype playlist on my way to school 6. Last-minute revision in the 'golden time' is too underrated, I make a revision sheet when I study before taking exams which has played a major role in boosting my marks

[@wamyy5]

I love these tips!! Definitely agree with all of them especially number 4. Thanks for sharing :)

I may be stupid but I didn't get number 4??

[@FlintShillito]

@@scarheadwitch7721 I assume the commenter means: Unless you get point deductions for getting questions wrong, always try your best on questions, even if you're not sure what the answer is. Putting something down can potentially earn points, so it's better than putting nothing down.

[@femiowoturo5592]

I normally listen to What's Up Danger before the test to get into the zone. Better to walk in feeling upbeat than stressed

[@hannahlr]

dumping everything you know for one question will definitely help you pass. not just for writing questions also for T or F questions write a paragraph on why u picked that answer show your teacher that you understand and you know everything

[@user-jn6qw5sx3v]

one strat i learned was that for two part questions, especially in reading tests, you should always compare you answers to see if they have similar or maybe the same words📝✏ *oh yeah, WE GOT THE SILVER BUTTON!!!! congrats amy! 🥳🥳

[@wamyy5]

Yes! Love that tip. WHOOHOO thank you!

[@Ninnee644]

I'm one of those people who'd have trouble with essay type questions because I won't know were to stop and end up putting most of my time and effort into the first one I attempt and not have enough time to do justice to the other questions. What helped me overcome this problem was answering the questions I know the least about first. That put my mind in the right frame to be efficient rather than ramble. And another thing to remember is, in case of essay type tests, scoring above average in all the questions you're supposed to answer gives you a higher total score than answering one really well and the others below average.

[@user-rq4to8xd7t]

You know sometimes the really best thing that can happen to you is that you have a good teacher who actually teaches nice. If you have one, it is such a blessing

Hi Amy. The first tip you said was actually true and this is the first youtuber i watch who have mentioned it. To be honest that's a trick I use to usually to score marks I usually overdeliver a lot of content and that actually gets you marks. If you don't know a answer just write all the thing related to that question and then you might actually score marks I know that like from 6th.Also love your videos you actually tell some relevant points instead of study for 4 hours.

[@wamyy5]

Yes! Love that you do that already :) Thanks so much for your kind words and watching my videos!!

Ms. Amy, I came across your interesting comment on 'Affirmative Action", which some argue is antithetical to a wholly merit-based society. To me, college education is limited like a greenhouse or an existence in a simulator, because in real life, the concept of "in group think" is so widely prevalent and the variables involved also far more nuanced ... also, how is it that certain countries have been around for 5,000 years and yet they could not get it right, relatively speaking so that they had to move to another new and more upstart countries which were open to receiving them, is that akin to affirmative action by chance at the level of nation-state concept ... things that make you go 'hmm, huh! Btw, on a grander scale, we are all on God's affirmative action, but that is a topic for another occasion!

I personally think that school/university is a game for grade and exams are stupid. For example, if you are a medical student when you graduate and get to your profession, you are not going to figure out what Vitamin/supplement you need to take. The internet will be there, you are going to rely on it to determine what supplement you need to take or Vitamins. In the Fall of 2023 semester, I had a Nutrition 295 instructor that did not give a crap that we look up answers on the internet. He had us do the exams at home with no Lockdown Browser or him caring whatsoever if we look up the answers, he cared more about our Diet Analysis where you write about your own diet and bibliography. He was such an easy grader, he even gave me full credit on my Mind tap total so I can finish the course with an A when my averages was like 88%.
