"Hi, I'm Jimmy Chang and I've been teaching college mathematics for nearly a decade and I'm just here to offer a few steps on... tips on how to take a math quiz. The most important thing to think about when it comes to taking a math quiz is relax. It is the most stressful thing that it doesn't really have to be, so if you go in there and your quiz is given or a quiz you know about ahead of time, just relax. You know you have to take it, so just take things one problem at at time. Now speaking of problems, because a quiz is taken in a timed setting, definitely skim through the quiz just to figure out which problems are easier to do that way you can knock 'em out right away and then you have the rest of the time for quiz to do the harder ones. And last but no least, when it comes to finishing the quiz, after you've finished all the problems, just check your answers if you have time and make sure that you have all the little steps covered, and make sure that you leave no signs unchecked, and make sure you have all the operations done. And at the end when you're done with all the answers, let's go back to what we talked about, the very first thing, and that's relax. You're done with the quiz.
