EOC Test Taking Tips Avoid rounding wherever possible unless you are told specifically to do so. o If the question tells you a value is!, do not use 0.66 or 0.667 or any other! similar approximation. o Do not do any rounding as you go when you are working through a problem. Keep exact values wherever possible; round only at the very end. Avoid using acronyms. For example, do not write CPCTC for Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent. Use interval notation correctly. Never use a closed bracket with the infinity symbol. Example: o Correct: 3, OR, you could also say all real numbers x > 3 o Incorrect: (3, ] Define all variables you use, as specifically as possible. Use units wherever possible. Make sure your calculator is in degree mode, not radian mode. Check the problem type to see if you need to show work. Short Answer and Enhanced Multiple Choice problems require you to show your work. There is no penalty for guessing. Fill in ALL questions even if you are randomly guessing. Read the problem carefully make sure you know what it is asking. Take your time you have all the time you need! Make sure to get a good night s sleep the night before and to eat a good breakfast. Bring your calculator!
