PART 1

ORIENTATION Quick Tips 5 - 11

Tip 5
The key is to think like the people who write the test: learn the types
of questions that come up most often and what a right answer looks
like, use your time effectively.

Tip 6
Identify your strengths and weaknesses so we can work on them
together….practice, practice, practice.

Tip 7
Expressions and idioms used in England and other English-speaking
countries will not be tested--only American English (page 3).

Tip 8
Practice and prepare for the test. Don't just try to "wing it". The more
you know about the test, the better you will perform. If the test is
familiar to you, you will have less stress dealing with it.

Tip 9
Don't try to study everything just before the exam. Work at it often
over a period of time (i.e. 4 weeks).
