In physics the laws must be

areas of the other sciences.
Tests on Science
When you prepare for SCI
ence tests, try the following:
. Search through your book
and your notes for concepts,
laws, relationships which
need to be understood in
terms of numbers. Think
about these ideas until you
are able to use them in
working problems without
hesitation, without guess
work.
Q Memorize significant laws
and principles.
Q Make up a list of questions
to ask yourself. Form these
questions on the basis Of
questions asked on previous
exams. Get them from exer-
ciSees at the ends of chap
terS. Shape them from hints
given in lectures.
o Answer these questions.
either writing them down or
reciting them to yourself.
Q Look for terms the teacher
may ask you to define. Study
a term until you know ex-
actly the sort of situation in
which it could be used. Pic
ture an object or a situation
to which the term is related
in some important way.
Q Form a pattern for remem-
bering any long lists Of names
or terms. 1t is helpful to
employ some memory scheme
such as caricaturing or ex-
aggerating. But the main
thing is to have some system
which works for you. The
test Of the system, naturally.
is whether it actually does
help you remember.
In this and previous chap
ters we have talked a lot
about how to get ready to
take examinations. But get
ting ready is only part Of the
chore. Do you know how to
take an examination?

are asked to remember and
write out the answer to ques-
tions. Many of the same
methods of preparing apply
to what is known as the
objective" exam.
This is the kind that merely
requires you to recognize and
mark the answer.
You should prepare for OBJ
jective exams by a general
review, as you do with the
essay type. But remember
this difference:
The objective test usually
requires review with a greater
emphasis on specific state
ments.
Start by skimming through
your material. Keep asking
yourself: What sort of ques-
ton is the teacher likely to
ask about this point, this
character, this date?"
You practice baseball by
throwing and hitting balls.
Prepare for exams by tossing
yourself questions and hit
ting them back.
If the exam is one covering
an entire book, it is good
practice to scan the index.
Each item can be used as a
cue to remind you of specific
facts. When you hit an item
that doesn't ring a bell, you
have touched a short in your
knowledge. Repair it so the
bell rings the next time.
Some students pile up facts
In their heads the way junk
yards pile up old car bodies.
In the junk yard, where
everything is stamped d to-
gether in gigantic bales and
shipped off to market, this
habit is all right. In educa-
ton. 1t leads to chaos.
Evening star., 1961-02-15

The best way is to fit each
piece of information into its
logical place in the general
pattern of your knowledge OF
the subject. Relate it in some
way. to other facts and ideas.
If you do this, you are pre-
pared for tests of either abil-
ity to recognize or ability to
remember correct answers.
Tests on Math
In certain ways the prep
aration for tests in math
varies from the procedure
we've been talking about.
You are confronted in the
math test with a mixed series
Of problems or exercises.
They are not necessarily
in the same order in which
they were presented in the
textbook.
You must keep in mind the
processes to be used, but you
also must understand the
principles involved.
You must be able to
select the proper set Of prin-
ciples to be used in the solu-
ton Of a given problem.
Your review for such a test
could involve the following
steps:
