Well its a long list but its worth it...
When you take a test,
you are demonstrating your ability to understand course material or perform certain tasks. Successful test taking avoids carelessness.
Examples of objective tests are true-false, multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank.
Examples of subjective texts are short answer, essay, or oral exams
NB: If you have any doubts about the fairness of tests,
or of the ability of tests to measure your performance,
please see your academic counseling service.
These suggestions may help you avoid careless errors!
Prepare:
Analyze your past test results
Each test can further prepare you for the next test.
Use your tests to review when studying for final exams
Arrive early for tests
Bring all the materials you will need such as pencils and pens, a calculator, a dictionary, and a watch.
This helps you focus on the task at hand
Be comfortable but alert
Choose a good spot and make sure you have enough room to work, maintain comfortable posture but don't "slouch"
Stay relaxed and confident
Remind yourself that you are well-prepared and are going to do well. If you find yourself anxious, take several slow, deep breaths to relax
Don't talk about the test to other students just before it; anxiety is contagious
Test Taking:
Read the directions carefully
This may be obvious, but it will help you avoid careless errors
If there is time, quickly look through the test for an overview
Note key terms, jot down brief notes
Answer questions in a strategic order:
First easy questions
to build confidence, score points, and mentally orient yourself to vocabulary, concepts, and your studies (it may help you make associations with more difficult questions)
Then difficult questions or those with the most point value
With objective tests, first eliminate those answers you know to be wrong, or are likely to be wrong, don't seem to fit, or where two options are so similar as to be both incorrect
With essay/subjective questions, broadly outline your answer and sequence the order of your points
Review:
Resist the urge to leave as soon as you have completed all the items
Review your test to make sure that you have answered all questions, not mis-marked the answer sheet, or made some other simple mistake
Proofread your writing for spelling, grammar, punctuation, decimal points, etc.
Change answers to questions if you originally misread them
or if you have encountered information elsewhere in the test that indicates that your first choice is incorrect
Decide on and adopt study strategies that worked best for you
Identify those that didn't work well and replace them...
LOL. THE END! =P I hope thats what ur looking for and that'll will work with you =) That's how I get 100% in my exames time to time *shhh*!

Ahh...Dont you just LOVE finals week? (*sarcasm*) So, Im only a freshman, but I think by maintaining a healhy amount of sleep, food and exercise patterns, and by staying relatively social (not isolating into a dark room to study for the entire week!), you should be okay. Also, try to set a schedule. When and how will you study? With who? Where? BEst wishes!

Pizza and sleep. This is the one week you don't worry about your appearance, your diet, or your life. Study study study. When it's over, breathe.
