1. Tips for Math Tests

2. Math TestsWork SystematicallyIf you are not penalized for arithmetic mistakes, spend less time on accuracy and checking answers and spend more time on setting up the problem correctly

3. Math TestsWrite all the numbers correctlyBe careful when writing the numbers 2, 5, 4,9, 1 and 7Write numbers in columns when decimal points in a lineRecopy problems from scrap paper very carefullyMake sure you label units of measure ie.. Inches, pounds etc.Use a calculator to solve all the problems

4. Math TestsOrganize Your WorkMake a list of all the problems and variables that the problem gives youIdentify the formula needed to solve the problemUse pictures and graphs as needed to interpret the questionLabel the visual aids with the data provided in the problem

5. Math TestsOrganize Your WorkEstimate what the answer should be before you solve the problemAsk yourself what how big or small the number will beAsk yourself will it be positive or negative

6. Math TestUse all the information in the questionIn most cases, all the data you need is provided in the question

7. Math TestVisual AidsStudy visual aids carefullyIf graphs and charts are given in problem study them carefullyAsk yourself is the graph origin at 0.0What are the intervals for the axes?Are there any numbers skipped on the axes?What are the units measure?

8. Math TestDon’t QuitIf you are having trouble setting up the answer or formula don’t give upSubstitute real numbers for a, x or y to see if it makes more senseThink of real life situations when the formulas or concepts are being usedIf fractions are a problem then substitute rounded numbers or decimals for them

9. Math TestMultiple Choice Math Test Some tests give you multiple answers when solving a problemCover the answers until you are finished solving itEstimate what the answer should beGenerally, eliminate the very high and the very low answers, especially if you have to guess

10. Math TestCheck Your AnswersAlways budget your timeGo over the answersReread the directions and questionsMake sure you answered all parts of the questionDoes you answer make sense?Does it answer the question?Re-work if you have timeIf time re-enter into the calculatorCheck all decimal places and signs
