TEST BANKS AND SOLUTION MANUALS: WHAT YOU NEED TO GET EXAM READY

Whether you are a student studying for finals or a young graduate preparing for your licensure exam

it cannot be denied that you seek the comfort of a dependable study reference and a well-planned

study schedule. It is common for students to rely on textbooks and countless other reference materials

to get that confidence level required to feel prepared for a test. The surmounting pressure is often

enough to mangle your nerves. However there are many ways to prepare one’s self for an exam and although

textbooks and school reference materials are a student’s main armaments for exams it cannot be denied

that these provisions contain too much information and are time-consuming to sift through. It may

prove difficult to wade through a ton of facts or to understand concepts and weed out important

details for memory when they are lost in the volume of data contained in textbooks. Thankfully

there is an easier and more applicable alternative to studying in the form of Test Banks and

Solution Manuals. Test Banks and Solution Manuals are the answers to bridging the gap between

bulk information and the essential must-knows of any given topic. Let’s explain how these two

work and how they can be used to your advantage.

First we need to understand what Test Banks and Solution Manuals are. Test Banks, as the term implies,

refer to a set of prepared questions that usually tests common, basic or vital knowledge of any given

field. It covers all possible questions and even throws in off-tangent questions so that you will be

prepared to expect even the unexpected. As a study tool it helps assess what you already know and also

brings into light the things you need to know. In other words it helps you come to terms with your

strengths and weaknesses and by doing so help you focus on the areas that need improvement. Test Banks

also help give an overview of what type of questions to expect in the exam or how they may be stated

(multiple choice, true or false, identification etc.). It will give you an overall feel of what it may

be like to take the actual test and will help you form strategies on how to approach each question.

Practicing on Test Banks helps your brain adapt to the exam scenario. Solution Manuals are basically the compliment to your Test Banks. Much like a study aid it contains

all the answers or solutions that were part of the latter. Solution manuals will help students

understand why a certain answer was wrong or correct and will give tips on how to understand what

answers certain questions are looking for. Exams are tricky and many a time students come face to

face with questions that seem to look easy and get confused when the answers are complex or are not

what they initially assumed them to be. Solution Manuals help explain certain exam items that have

a similar tactic. They will also guide you on what specific details or information to read about

on a given exam topic by outlining how each answer was derived. By using Solution Manuals alongside

Test Banks you are helping your brain condense volumes of crucial information.
