Exam Strategy Paragraph

Exam Strategy

Exam strategy refers to the approach of an examinee for his exam. It is believed that about 50 percent chances of success depend on examination skill rather than Subject knowledge. There are mainly three approaches that an examinee needs to follow. They are strategy before the day of exam, strategy on the exam hall and finally strategy for answering the questions. The day before the exam an examinee need to double check their exam dates and times, what are things they need to take with them and look at the instructions for the exam. On the exam hall they need to Budget their time. They must not waste time elaborating adequate answers and they should attempt to answer all the questions. They also need to follow some strategies for answering their questions. They need to think how they will cope with each question. They should spend at least five minutes per question thinking about and planning their answer. It is very much important to underline the key words of the questions which indicate what they are required to do. It is useful half way through writing the answer, to check back that they are doing what they should. Their answer should be legible. They can't change their handwriting but if it is very tiny or very large they should use double spacing to make it easy on the eye for the reader. There is no doubt that subject knowledge is very much important for exam. But without some appropriate exam strategy a student cannot secure better result as 50 percent success of the exam depends on exam strategy.
