Hey, I'm sure you'll do ok. I was always like that with exams, you worry your ass off before the exam but when you're in there actually taking it, you're fine!

Good Luck!

On multiple choice questions:

First, narrow down the answers that you know are not correct.

Then, if you're still TOTALLY CLUELESS, pick the answer with the most words in it. It won't work every time, but I'm serious when I say that it's a pattern.

Why? Well, tests cost money to produce. If the answers are shorter, less paper is used. Space will not often be wasted on longer answers. Individual teachers who make out tests aren't going to waste the time it takes to write out long answers either.

I have a degree in testing. I know what I'm talking about.

thx for replying- and thx becky for the hint but our system is a bit strange it's like:

question: .............

answer1: .........
answer2:.........
answer3:........
answer4:........

and then you can choose:
a: questions 1,2,3 are correct
b: 1 and 3 are correct
c: 2 and 4 correct
d: 4 is correct
e: all are correct

and your have to make 1 cross logically...

Oh, that sucks. I like the ones where you can do an eeny-meeny-meiny-mo that at least you've got like a 25% chance of getting it right!

Yes, but I was refering to eeny-meeny-meiny-mo meaning that there are 4 possible answers. Which is a 25% chance

i took it as a typing mistake...
i could make it with an german pattern which doesn't depend on how many choices are
