Get Answers Wrong!!

I have to say this is some of the best advice I've ever gotten, and that is to get as many answers as possible wrong!

Wait, if you're getting answers wrong, doesn't that mean you're stupid, not studying enough, and that you're going to fail? NO SILLY! This is counterintuitive.

If you're getting answers wrong (and studying correctly), then you are learning something every question you miss. This is GOOD! The more questions you miss, the more you learn! Of course, you should be asking yourself "why did I get this question wrong?" to get the point here. 

If you're sitting around doing practice questions, getting every single one right... you have to stop and wonder why? Why waste your time answering a bunch of questions you can already answer correctly? Isn't that a waste of time? Yes. Goto the bar! Watch a movie! you earned it! Either the questions are too easy, or you've studied that subject well enough, and you don't need to go back to it! Or, you can be that person who tries to learn as much for the test as possible before it starts. 

You're better off studying something you know you're going to get wrong on the test, and fix it now, before its too late! It takes time to figure out what you know and what you don't know, questions will tell you this information. Make sure you have a source for questions! (so important). And if you don't, and are too scared to make mistakes now, you'll never take the time to learn to fix them for when it really matters. The test. Not to mention, if you have this attitude about life, keeping yourself from making mistakes is a great way to keep yourself from fixing those things that hold you back from being successful. 


Goodluck everyone.
