Do a practice test at home
This must be done few days before the school test.
This allows time for you to fix any problem areas.
Do the test alone and without any help.
It must feel like a real test.
Always mark and correct your work!
Only use practice tests which have memos available.
DO NOT CRAM THE NIGHT BEFORE!
This will stress you out if things go wrong.
Working at night will affect your sleep.
You do not want to be tired when you write the actual test at school.
If you need to cram, it means you have not been completing Steps 1 - 4.
Look at this sample schedule:
Monday:
Practice for 45 minutes and mark work for 15 minutes.
Tuesday:
15 minutes of Mental Maths
Wednesday:
Practice for 45 minutes and mark work for 15 minutes.
It went badly :(
Thursday:
Re-do the work from yesterday.
Skip Mental Maths.
Friday

You have a test next week Tuesday.
Do a practice test at home.
Mark your work.

Sunday
Monday:

Revise the work which you struggled with on Saturday.
Stop working at 4 p.m. LATEST 5 p.m.
Doing Maths in the evening or at night will affect your sleep!
Go to bed early.
Tuesday - TEST DAY
Page through some work before the test, alone.
Do not let your friends confuse you or stress you out.
Drink enough water! Your brain needs to be hydrated.
Do your best. You are prepared!
