Question

What is the best way to study for a math test?
Also, what is the best/most efficient way to write a math test?

The format of my tests is usually basic questions, and then word problems. I'm always pressed for time at the end, so I have to scramble when answering the word problems, and I get them wrong...

Answer 1

Practice by trying to solve specific problems, under the guidance of a tutor if necessary.

Answer 2

I suggest you do the word problems first -- and then do the basic questions.

Answer 3

If the problem is that you need too much time to do the problems, but given enough time you would do well, then you need to practice more.
