I know what I know what I know – Some suggestions for taking some of the stress out of taking exams. When studying ask yourself: Can I relate x to y? Can I illustrate how x does y? Can I compare and contrast x to y? Can I apply x to y in the real world? Can I distinguish x from y? Can I define, identify, name and describe x? Can I solve the problem of x? Can I modify or rearrange x to make it work with y? Can I support the theory of x and y? Can I defend my knowledge of x and y?
