The goal of electrical exam prep is to be prepared to pass the exam. The best way to reach this goal is to prepare by focusing on the specific subject topics that will be covered on your exam.
Applying the following list of test taking tips when preparing for and taking your electrical exam is crucial to achieving a passing score.
Test Taking Tip #1 – Proper Preparation
Make sure you are properly prepared. Guesswork won’t get you a passing score, but careful preparation will. Make sure to become familiar with the codes and calculations you’ll need to know to answer exam questions correctly.
Test Taking Tip #2 – Pay Careful Attention
Pay careful attention to instructions given in your examination bulletin and at the testing facility prior to the start of your examination. Make sure you know how long you’ll have to complete the exam, which references you are permitted to use-and if notations, highlighting and the use of tabs is permitted.
Test Taking Tip #3 – Stick to Test Taking Strategy
Devise a strategy for completing the exam in the allotted time. For example if you’re taking a 100 question exam and have four hours to complete it, you would have no more than 2.4 minutes to answer each question-if you spend the same amount of time on each question. Since there will be questions that will require more time to answer than others, work to answer the easiest questions first, then answer those that will take more time. That way you won’t miss out on answering the easy questions because of having run out of time.
Test Taking Tip #4 – Read Questions Carefully
Reduce mistakes by reading each question carefully. You can only choose the correct answer if you understand the question.
Test Taking Tip #5 – Get Adequate Sleep Prior to Exam
The night before the exam is not the time to pull an “all nighter.” Lack of sleep increases anxiety and diminishes the ability to concentrate and remember what you’ve learned in preparation for the exam.
