Short Answer Test Tips-Help

Tips and strategies on how to take a test with short answers.

  • Use flashcards; write the key terms, dates and concepts on the front and the definition, event, and explanations on the back.
  • Try not to leave an answer blank. Show your work/write down your thoughts, even if you don't get the exact answer, partial credit is usually awarded.
  • If you can think of more than one answer for a question, ask the instructor what to do.
  • Read the question carefully and make sure that you answer everything that it asks for. Some short answer questions have multiple parts.
