Pretest Begin by taking the pretest on pages vii?xii. Use the Pretest Answer Sheet

on page 149 to record your answers. Then use the Pretest Analysis Chart on page 151 to identify your areas of strength and the areas you need to review. The chart will refer you to specific lessons in this book for further study.

Step-by-Step Instruction Each lesson starts with step-by-step instruction on a skill.

The instruction contains examples and then a test example with feedback. This instruction is followed by practice questions. Work all of the questions in the lesson's practice and then check your work in the Answers section in the back of the book.

Unit Reviews At the end of each unit, there is a Unit Review. Use these reviews to

find out if you need to review any of the lessons before continuing.

Strategies and Hints Pay careful attention to the Strategies and Hints throughout

this book. Strategies are test-taking tips that help you do better on the test. Hints give you extra information about a skill.

Practice Test At the end of the book, there is a full-length practice test. This test is

similar to the TABE? 11 & 12 test. It has the same number and type of questions. This assessment will give you an idea of what the real test is like. Use the Practice Test Answer Sheet on page 153 to record your answers. Then use the Practice Test Analysis Chart on page 155 to identify areas you need to review.

Test-Taking Tips

1. Read the directions very carefully. Make sure you read through them word for word.

2. Read each question carefully. Make sure you know what it means and what you have to do.

3. Read all of the answers carefully, even if you think you know the answer.

4. Answer all of the questions. If you cannot find the right answer, rule out the answers that you know are wrong. Then try to figure out the right answer. If you still do not know, make your best guess.

5. If you cannot figure out the answer on the paper-and-pencil test, put a light mark by the question number on the answer sheet and come back to it later. Erase your marks before you finish. If you cannot figure out the answer on the online test, flag the item for review.

6. Do not change an answer unless you are sure your first answer is wrong. Usually your first idea is the correct answer.

7. If you get nervous, stop for a while. Take a few breaths and relax. Then start working again.
