#8. Review Test-Taking Strategies
It is normal for your son or daughter to feel stressed when taking an exam. However, there are certain strategies that willl help him or her manage the stress and do his or her best on the exam. First, make sure that your child arrives on time and tries to stay relaxed. Students should be sure to read all of the directions on the exam and pace themselves as to not feel rushed. You can let your child know it's OK to skip around on a test, if allowed, as he or she may be more comfortable with certain topics than others.
