Preparation
I find that a good way to prepare for a test is to remember what I’ve been taught
Practising questions is a common technique for successful exam candidates
It is more appropriate to revise before a test than afterwards
Impress your friends by revising for the test and scoring very well as a result

Sitting the Test
Read each question carefully before attempting it
Show your working clearly
Show your strategy clearly so that anybody could figure out your thought process
Always show working when taking maths tests because there might be marks for the method even if you get the answer wrong
The number of marks for a question is often a splendid indicator of how much work is required to solve a problem (and hence how much in the way of working you would be advised to include)
To get full marks or anything close to it, you should try to avoid making silly errors and check your solutions thoroughly
A test can give you valuable feedback about your current body of internalized knowledge
Not all tests are worth passing (you may wish to fail a pregnancy test, for example), but a Maths test is always worth passing
The more marks you get in a test, the better your grade (and almost certainly your effort, homework and conduct scores)
