Test Day

‘Twas the night before the SAT, and all through the house, everybody is stirring, and being loud and obnoxious—especially your little brother who keeps running by your door and pointing at you and laughing…oh, uh, sorry about that.  I got a little carried away there for a minute.  But, seriously, the night before your SAT or ACT can be chaotic and your nerves may be on edge.  But Eduify is here to help! We’ve created this list of things to do the night before the test, so it doesn’t turn into the Nightmare before the SAT.

Stay Home – Even though half your school is taking the test with you tomorrow, some of your classmates are still out on the town tonight.  Maybe they invited you along.  Don’t do it.  There will be another party tomorrow night, and, if you do well on the test, you’ll have something to celebrate rather than vituperate.

5 general study skills that will raise your AP test scores

Comments

School may be out, but for some of you, the summer doesn’t entail going to the beach with your friends every afternoon. Some of you will still be taking classes this summer. Groans all around. I know it really, really is not fun to take school during the summer, but think about it as a trade-off. By taking an AP class now, you won’t have to take that same class in college — granted you get a 5 or a 4 on the exam. Think about how much time and energy that saves you in the long run! So don’t sweat the small stuff. Do your best in your AP summer class, and learn these general study skills that are sure to raise your AP test score.
