Eng12 Prov exam prep

Thursday 9-12
South Hill Gym

Arrive early- 30m early
Find your seat - answer sheet - your name, alphabetical order in the rows of desks
If you can't find your name, go to the font of the room and tell a teacher.
On your desk, you should have two pens, two pencils, and eraser. Bring your ID. Bring your PEN (personal education number)
No phones! No dictionaries! No electronics!

All that stuff goes to the side of the gym.

Bottle of water. Snacks.

Don't open you exam before the teacher tells you.
Leave it where it is. Don't even touch it.

The invigilators can not answer questions.

MC is in pencil. Written responses should be in black ink.

At the end of the exam, the teacher will tell you to stop writing and close up your answer book.

--TIME--

Leave the exam- answer book, MC sheet. The invigilators will pick them up.


How to Prepare for the exam:

Before the exam:
Review some literary terms.
Get a good sleep the night before.
Eat a healthy breakfast.
Stay calm.
Go for a pee first.

During the exam:
Stay calm.
You know what to expect.
MC is not that valuable.
Writing that is more valuable - 
1. Be careful of time. 
2. Read the question 5 times- read every word.
3. Plan first before you write.
4. Make sure you have a thesis statement.
Make sure you have topic sentences.
5. Sentences - nice variety of simple, compound and complex sentences.
6. MC- it's the best answer, not the right answer.
