| "I use index cards when I read a textbook. When I find something very important, I write the page number, where the information is located on the page, and the information in as few words as possible. I can then find the information quickly when I need to. " | ||

| "Not sure if it is still practiced, but in my time the school library used to keep copies of old tests and exams. Looking at these provided insight as to what might be covered on the exam, and especially if samples of previous tests/exams by the teacher preparing this year's exam were available, the type of questions to expect and their scoring. If the library does not store these, you or others may have older siblings who have taken the exam you will be taking and have kept their tests." | ||
