The Best Way to Study for a Test

What is the best way to study for a test?
By Matthew Gilbertson
Fourth grade Berea, Kentucky 1996
I think the best way to get ready for a test is to get some of the books on that subject and studied those books really hard. After that you should get good nights sleep in the morning study little bit more. If you're nervous about the test just relax and think about what you've studied.
