Anytime you take a practice test or quiz, you’re giving yourself valuable data about how you take tests, what your common errors are, and where you can improve.
Use this to your advantage and take the mystery out of what you need to study next. I’ve heard test takers say they just need to review more, and in some cases, that’s absolutely true, but there are also times when test takers actually know the answer, they’re just missing key words from questions, getting anxious and picking any answer, or the more common pitfall, they change their correct answer to an incorrect one!!
Use this tracker to get a better sense of what your pitfalls are, so you can study more efficiently and strategically. Some abbreviations for common errors are already filled in but there’s room to expand and tailor it to you -- add your own key to make it a valuable tool to your success!
