7 Steps To Excelling At Essay Tests And Examinations by StandoutUKC(m): 5:45am On Oct 29, 2016
Questions such as in multiple-choice tests and true/false tests assess specific factual knowledge. When you study for these tests, your goal should be to recognize facts at a glance.

On the other hand, Essay tests assess your mastery of themes and overall ideas. When you study for essay tests, your goal should be to recall broad information in an organized way. Your studying for essay tests should be related to this goal.

Here are the steps to follow when studying for an essay test:

1. Assemble the materials that contain the information that will be covered on the test. This includes your textbook, your textbook notes, your class notes, and your past questions series on that test.

2. Read these materials to identify themes and overall ideas. Each time you identify one, note the name of that theme or overall idea on a card or sheet of paper. You will often find the same theme or overall idea in one or more places, but use just one card or sheet of paper to represent it.

3. For each card or sheet of paper you prepare in Step 2, carefully review your textbook, textbook notes, and class notes and add written details about the theme or overall idea to the card.

4. Once you have completed Step 3 for each card, review your cards or sheets of paper several times. Doing this will give you a working familiarity with the information that is most likely to be the basis of questions on the test.
