Big Test

[blkmazda90]

I got a big test coming up monday the 4th. Im taking the written exam for my class A permit. Program I'm taking through highschool. It was free and its a good thing to have since it cost 5 to 6 grand to get it at a school. Plus it's just awesome driving big rigs haha..anyway iv'e been studying and i figured you guys have studied for something before. What has worked best to really get the stuff to stick in your head. Reading, videos, etc.??

Thanks

Making note/flash cards also, and don't forget repetition. Those work for me, unless it's algebra, then all hope is lost.

Good luck!

here is my 2 cents. find yourself a really really hot girl who is willing to get naked. Make flash cards with questions. She askes you questions. you get answer right, she strips. Its a win win for everyone, especially you. you get quality studying and get to see a great looking lady naked!

Option one should be Billy Madison style for sure^.
Next, just take notes. Its a proven fact the more you repeat something, with notes, etc the better you remember it.
Good Luck!

My science teacher says that studying a bunch at one time is piontless, your brain shuts off after about 20-30 minutes. He says if you study for 20-30 minutes, then do soemthing else for about that time (eat, watch tv, something) and then study for anoth 20-30 minutes, then take a break (tv, food, what ever) then continue to do this, you will remember ALOT more. He did a thing in class one time to show us. He had us take one test without studying at all, another class (same subject, Chemestry) take it with everyone cramming basicly, and the other class doing that study, break, study thing. The study, break, study, class got way better scores than we did. normally, our test grades are about the same.

when I was in medic I had to remeber a hole shit load of drugs, doses, and what they did basicly 25 full pages. so what I did was make 3 sets of flash cards and put them multiple places like next to the couch, in the shiter, and I carried a set with me in my backpack. the best ones where in the bathroom since there is no distractions. Also when you are things that don't go well with flash cards, do things like chewing gum or anything your are able to do while taking the test. it has something to do with you opening diff. channels of memory recall. just like the study one of the universitys did showing that if you study drunk then test drunk you will have better scores than if you study drunk then test sober.

Also my last thing is if you studied go with your gut and mark the first answer that you mark. what happens is most people look at it to long and start to dout them selfs causing them to change the answers to a wrong answer.


Sorry this was so long. good luck with your test.

I like the naked lady part BUT with a girl naked in front of me i think the last thing on my mind would be air leakage rates of a big rig.

Yeah i have always been told your first answer is your best answer. The book Ive been reading is like 150 pages. i feel pretty confident.

The worst part is just remembering certain numbers with certain amount of time. Pain in the balls.

 

[odie1969]

Numbers with time sounds like flash card time to me.

dunno about where you are, but ive looked over the CDL written test here and its more commons sense than anything else.

Newport, Maine. About 30 miles from bangor. Yeah it is pretty much common sense.
