[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 160358, member: 1233"] Lisa, You are unquestionably intelligent. use the focusing tool, answer as intelligently as you can and do your best to stay relaxed. My mom used to do textbook reviews, and test reviews (she was a professor). We also had a couple of family friends who wrote textbooks. Usually the person who writes the textbook does NOT make the practice tests. That is just usually how it is. The writers are busy doing other things. Often they have to pay separate reviewers to check the test and the book, and often these are not checked in depth. the quality of textbooks is going down. I am NOT saying this to mean your books are wrong. I just mean maybe paying attention to the book and NOT the practice tests (which may have been written by someone else, based on what THAT person thought should have gone in, NOT what the author thought was correct and NOT what the actual test will be.) I hope this isn't too confusing, and is reassuring. Just remember you study hard and effectively, and you CAN do this!! Hugs, susie [/QUOTE]
