After reading some of the questions, I realized that for a lot of the questions I just didn’t take the time to understand them fully and picked an answer in an effort finish as quickly as possible. It does say that I finished the test in 26 minutes, so when looking over my notes I feel as if the main issue here wasn’t the notes but how I took the test and how I studied. For some of the questions I was able to re-read it and tell immediately that I just misread the question. The questions in which I can recognize the problem wasn’t how I interpreted the question, I realized that the topics were the ones that I glossed over largely while studying. Although I started studying five days before the test by constantly going through the vocabulary and examples and using the study guide, I didn’t create scenarios to use with the vocabulary which I thought was easier. In the future, I’m going to make a point of reviewing every concept equally, even when they seem simple to me. Also, I’m going to make a point to take my time when I take the upcoming tests.

This picture represents what I’ve learned from taking this test and viewing my errors: I should make a point to take my time when taking a test and in reviewing course concepts as I prepare.
