Practice Tips

You're on your own while working through these questions, but we do recommend that you try to use them to fairly check your knowledge. That way, you'll be better prepared and less anxious during the real test. Use the following tips to get maximum benefit from the review questions:

• Prepare your environment by asking everyone to not disturb you. Turn off your telephone, your TV, your radio: in short, minimize all your distractions and create a quiet spot and time.

• You need plenty of paper on which to write your answers. If you have questions or doubts during the test, jot those down too so you can review the book for complete answers later.

• Don't use any reference material to answer these questions. Remember, you're preparing yourself and you need to know the areas that need more study. It isn't necessary that you ace these questions the first time out.
