  2. Test Taking Tip 1 • Learn how to take a multiple choice test.

  3. Test Taking Tip 2 • Repetition is important in math. You learn how to solve problems by doing them so keep on practicing problems but don't do it blindly. Make sure you learn how to recognize when/why you should use a specific method to solve a problem. • IXL can help you hone in on what you need to practice.

  4. Test Taking Tip 3 • Understand Grid Items • Constructed Response Practice.

  5. Test Taking Tip 4 • Be organized. Make a list of tools that would be helpful as you practice and then use that list to get organized when getting ready to take the test. • Make sure you have all the tools you need — calculator, ruler, manipulatives, scratch paper, sharp pencils, erasers. Don't forget to use them!

  6. Test Taking Tip 5 Take Responsibility • This is your education and your future. • Your teachers and parents have already passed this grade.

  7. Test Taking Tip 6 • Check Your Work (Reread the whole problem. • Look at the question and see if your answer matches what the question is asking. • Use inverse operation and then verify with a calculator and the formula sheet on OAKS.
