As far as self-examination is concerned, past past papers are required to prepare for the exam. Past past questions can directly reflect the key test points of the year, so brushing past questions can help us familiarize ourselves with the test question types and test centers as soon as possible.
Judging from the past self-examination questions, there is an interesting feature: the same test questions, the same options, the teacher revised it and then took it out to test everyone, or just changed the form, from multiple choice to single choice.
So I'll share it with you todayHow to make effective use of past past papers to prepare for the exam!
There are 4 stages of self-examination preparation
Regardless of the length of preparation time, we can divide self-exam preparation into 4 stages.
1. Preliminary preparation stage
2. Intensive preparation stage
3. Sprint preparation stage
4. First aid stage before the exam
1. How to use past papers in the preliminary preparation stage
[Preliminary Preparation Stage]:
After deciding on the course you want to apply for, first find out the most recent set of past past papers to see the main question types and score distribution.
Determine how you want to get a 60 (passing grade), for exampleMinimum score for multiple-choice questions + minimum score for short-answer questions + minimum score for essay questions.
You can see the course Introduction to the Basic Principles of Marxism:
Multiple-choice questions: 25 multiple-choice questions, each question is worth 2 points, a total of 50 points.
Short-answer questions: 5 questions, each worth 6 points, a total of 30 points.
Essay questions: Choose 2 out of 3 questions, each question is worth 10 points, a total of 20 points.
After looking at the question types and score distribution, we can make a preliminary estimate of which part at least to score for:
80% correct answer for multiple-choice questions, 40 points;
For short-answer questions, we get half of the score, which is 15 points;
For essay questions, we get half of the score, which is 10 points;
This adds up to a total of 65 points.
[Why Analyze Past Questions]:
Know the latest exam question types and scores, know how to allocate your preparation time in the future, and where you should focus your attention.
For example, Ma Yuan's multiple-choice questions have a particularly high score, accounting for half of the score, so we need to spend more time on multiple-choice questions.
2. How to use past papers in the intensive preparation stage
This is generally 7 days to half a month before the exam.
[Intensive preparation stage]:
Most students will go through the syllabus and online classes first, and after completing the chapter exercises in each lesson, they will do the past 5 yearsBrush the multiple-choice questions first, and then do the big questions.
[The purpose of this]:
Get a general idea of what the multiple-choice test points are and what the short-answer test points are.
You will find out by studying the past questionsEvery year, there are more than 4 real questions (multiple choice questions + short answer questions) that are exactly the same as before, the original questions with one word unchanged, and the short answer questions are basically repeated.
[Then here is a suggestion for everyone]:
Circle the content that has been tested at least 2 times, and focus on memorization.
Here I can share with you a better learning method, you can try it
After learning the content of a chapter, first brush the chapter multiple-choice questions on the platform, and after the accuracy rate reaches 90-100%, then move on to the next chapter.
After completing the chapter exercises in the platform, go to the multiple-choice questions of past past questionsThis can ensure and improve the accuracy of past questions. If you have enough time to prepare for the exam, it is not recommended that you brush the real questions as soon as you come up, because if you do the questions without knowing anything, you will be very confused, and your memory will not be profound.
3. How to use past papers in the sprint preparation stage
It is usually about 1-2 weeks before the test.
Then draw 3-5 sets of real questions, simulate the real exam environment, evaluate your actual score, and then check and fill in the missing knowledge points. At this stage, we must ensure that the multiple-choice score rate is 80%.
Fourth, how to use the real questions in the first aid stage before the exam
It is usually 1-3 days before the test.
We have to concentrate our attention and calm down our brains to memorize the short-answer test points of past past questionsUse instantaneous memory to quickly memorize short-answer questions.
Short-answer questions with high repetition must be memorized, and short-answer questions with low repetition must be understood and memorized + memorized key words.
Here some friends may ask: Why do you want to memorize the short-answer questions in the past questions?
I can tell you with certainty, because there are really a lot of repetitive test points for the short-answer questions of the past questions! Especially in the liberal arts.
We practice repeatedly on past past questions, not just to "remember the answers", nor to "do everything right", but to guide ourselves to study, guide ourselves on how to answer the questions, and guide ourselves to understand the exam situation, "being able to do it right" is just the foundation. Such an important past question, everyone remember to practice!
