EXPECTATIONS/ASSISTANCE

**You need to be able to take a timed math test with no calculator. (HINT: You need to answer EVERY question- the KEY being to answer first all the questions you are sure of first, then going back and answer the more difficult questions. The last 2 minutes of the test, if you have blanks. Make an effort to guess a, b, c, etc., until all questions are answered. Unmarked answers will be counted as incorrect.)

**There will also be a behavioral portion of the test...The answers to these questions are neither right nor wrong. The testing applicant MUST take a position that is all one way or all the other. (HINT: Do not be in the middle. No to answer will automatically be counted wrong.)

**There will be a reading/comprehension portion as well. You can also study with a 5th grade book at Barnes and Nobles. (NOTE: Do not to take these practice sessions lightly. Many people just do not remember things from the 5th grade, as proven by the hit TV show. It is not a matter of intelligence. To pass the test, you really must practice.)
