Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s Test Taking Strategies #3: Don’t Change Your Answer
The odds are that a student’s first answer is usually correct. Often students go back and change a right answer into a wrong answer! Unless you are absolutely positive that your first answer is definitely wrong, leave it alone.

Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s Test Taking Strategies #2: Multiple Choice Questions – Read All
Read all the choices before deciding on the correct answer. Often there is a wrong answer that appears right or is 99% right but 1% wrong that is put in there to fool you. Students that are impulsive and do not read all the choices, tend to go for these wrong answers.

Y3K Tutor In Your Home’s Test Taking Strategies #1: Multiple Choice Questions – Elimination Method
If the answer does not stand out, try the elimination method. On a separate sheet of paper write down the letters, A B C D E to coincide with the letters of the multiple choice question. Then read over the potential answers. On your paper, cross out the letters of the answers that do not make any sense. At this point you will have eliminated all accept for the correct answer or have two choices remaining. Choosing one of the remaining two will give you 50/50 odds in getting the answer correct.

PARENTS AGREE: Y3K TUTOR IN YOUR HOME CHANGES LIVES
“I wanted to let you know that my son got a B+ on every final exam other than his English final, which was an A-. The extra effort he put into preparing, with your patient help, brought all of his grades up, so that he was able to finish the year with final grades of four A’s and three B’s. You’ve been so wonderfully helpful, as always, but especially during this last challenging term. I can’t thank you enough!”
