Editor's Notes
- Run without explanation at first. Name how many subjects talked in this song? Rationale : Even we talk like a boss about studying and scoring, the main point still, you need to revise.
- Ask audience why? Make a list at whiteboard.

- 1. Ignore conventional wisdom. You’ve probably been given test-taking advice along the lines of “always guess the middle answer if you don’t know” or “avoid any answer that uses the words ‘never,’ ‘always,’ ‘all,’ or ‘none’” at some point in your life. However, according to Poundstone, this conventional wisdom doesn’t hold up against statistics. In fact, he found that the answers “none of the above” or “all of the above” were correct 52% of the time. Choosing one of these answers gives you a 90% improvement over random guessing, he says. 2. Look at the surrounding answers. Poundstone found correct answer choices hardly repeated consecutively, so looking at the answers of the questions you do know will help you figure out the ones you’re stuck on. For example, if you’re stuck on question No. 2, but know that the answer to No. 1 is A and the answer to No. 3 is D, those choices can probably be eliminated for No. 2. Of course, “knowledge trumps outguessing,” Poundstone reminds us. Cross out answers you know are wrong based on facts first. 3. Choose the longest answer. Poundstone also noticed that the longest answer on multiple-choice tests was usually correct. “Test makers have to make sure that right answers are indisputably right,” he says. “Often this demands some qualifying language. They may not try so hard with wrong answers.” If one choice is noticeably longer than its counterparts, he says it’s likely the correct answer. 4. Eliminate the outliers. Some exams, like the SATs, are randomized using computers, negating any patterns usually found in the order of the answers. However, no matter their order, answer choices that are incongruent with the rest are usually wrong, according to Poundstone. He gives the following sample answers from an SAT practice test, without including the question: A. haphazard…radical B. inherent…controversial C. improvised…startling D. methodical…revolutionary E. derivative…gradual Because the meaning of “gradual” stands out from the other words in the right column, choice E can be eliminated. Poundstone then points out that “haphazard” and “improvised” have almost identical meanings. Because these choices are so close in meaning, A and C can also be eliminated, allowing you to narrow down over half the answers without even reading the question. “It’s hard to see how one could be unambiguously correct and the other unambiguously wrong,” he says. For the record, the correct answer is D. Read more at http://www.businessinsider.my/4-ways-to-outsmart-any-multiple-choice-test-2015-6/#a4ZMmtitXqRrxhT7.99 Anymore tips?

- Good Study Material for a Better Preparation (lecturer suggested text books) The candidates must have the fresh and updated study material. The selection of books is very important and plays the biggest role in preparation. Be sure that the books must contain the contents according to the latest exam pattern and syllabus. Exam Pattern: Every organization prepares a prescribed exam pattern for every examination. You should know about how many questions will be asked, who many sections, what will be the time duration, the nature of the examination, is there a provision of negative marketing? Exam Pattern will tell you everything. Create a Time- Table: If you study by going through a perfect time table, the probability of success increases. You should divide your day in some partitions and fix a time for study the different subjects. Be honest on the Time Table and you will start gaining the confidence which will make you like a warrior in the arena of the written exam. Revision is Important: As we start learning new things, the previous things become older and blur in our mind. This is a dangerous thing for the examinee. To avoid this, the revision can be the key of success. You should revise concepts/chapters/formulas/definitions and chapters in every two months during the preparation. Prepare Your Own Notes: If you prepare notes by yourself, then you have the preparation material in your own language. Your own language means, if you read the notes after a long time, you will understand everything easily. This will definitely increase your information recall ability.
- You are suggested to check the entire instructions carefully given in the question paper. Solve those questions first, for which you are confident. Don’t stick to the question for which you are confused. You can see it in the last 30 minutes of the time duration. Attempt the section first in which you think you are strong. Never let yourself pressurized, keep cool and believe in your preparation. http://www.recruitmentinboxx.com/how-to-prepare-for-written-exam/5255/
- Focus on the present - think about what the person in front of you is wearing and whether it suits them, ponder whether you would do their hair differently Remind yourself that your panic will end Set aside 3 minutes to divert your attention away from the panic with a difficult unemotional question (e.g. 'how many invigilators would it take to change all the light bulbs'? 'Why is it much harder for you to straighten your ring finger compared to your other digits'? 'What do the French say for Déjà Vu'?) Use the mini relaxation exercises you have been practising Fight back against the panic: "Forget it, you are not winning, now go away" Use the breathing exercises you have been practising If you’ve forgotten them try this one. Cup your hands over your nose and mouth to breathe in more carbon dioxide. Observe and explain your symptoms to yourself as mere anxiety reactions (e.g. "I'm dizzy because panic leads to constriction of the blood flow to my brain") Remind yourself that panic attacks are not actually dangerous, just unpleasant (like exams) Think positive, coping thoughts such as "I know I can deal with this panic" or “I am going to relax my body and get through this" Remind yourself of a similar situation which you survived and what helped then Visualise a calm place or person and let yourself spend two minutes thinking about this Stretch yourself physically –clasp your hands and stretch them out on front of you, roll your shoulders, lean back or look at the ceiling

- Practical tips on assignment writing Here are some practical tips that will keep your work focused and effective: – Critical thinking – Academic writing has to be characterized by critical thinking, not only to provide the work with the needed level, but also because it takes part in the final mark. – Continuity of ideas – When you get to the middle of assignment, things can get confusing. You have to make sure that the ideas are flowing continuously within and between paragraphs, so the reader will be enabled to follow the argument easily. Dividing the work in different paragraphs is very important for this purpose. – Usage of ‘you’ and ‘I’ – According to the academic writing standards, the assignments should be written in an impersonal language, which means that the usage of ‘you’ and ‘I’ should be avoided. The only acceptable way of building your arguments is by using opinions and evidence from authoritative sources. – Referencing – this part of the assignment is extremely important and it takes a big part in the final mark. Make sure to use either Vancouver or Harvard referencing systems, and use the same system in the bibliography and while citing work of other sources within the text. – Usage of examples – A clear understanding on your assignment’s topic should be provided by comparing different sources and identifying their strengths and weaknesses in an objective manner. This is the part where you should show how the knowledge can be applied into practice. – Numbering and bullets – Instead of using numbering and bullets, the academic writing style prefers the usage of paragraphs. – Including figures and tables – The figures and tables are an effective way of conveying information to the reader in a clear manner, without disturbing the word count. Each figure and table should have clear headings and you should make sure to mention their sources in the bibliography. – Word count – the word count of your assignment mustn’t be far above or far below the required word count. The outline will provide you with help in this aspect, so make sure to plan the work in order to keep it within the boundaries. https://collegepuzzle.stanford.edu/?p=3428
