Describe how a student should prepare for an open book test.

Only take what you need into an open-book exam. Carefully select your materials and resources and organise them for quick reference. This includes having spare pens, pencils and erasers. If you need any other tools, make sure they all work and pack them neatly. For those using non-solar calculators, don't forget spare batteries!

If you are doing a take-home exam, gather readings, notes and resources together beforehand and organise them neatly in your study area at home. Set up a quiet space where you can concentrate and work without interruptions.

In preparation for your open book test, identify key concepts and terms which will more than likely appear on the test. Use your class lecture notes to pinpoint what the instructor is likely to include on the exam... You should come to the test already having studied all key concepts and topics.
