A Brain Hack (of sorts) for Exams and Tests - College Info Geek

Earlier this year I made a video to answer the question, "Should I change answers on tests or stick with my initial answer?" That video is now sorta kinda... wrong. The beauty of science is that, at pretty much any time, new data can be discovered that invalidates earlier conclusions. That is what has happened in the case of this debate on changing answers, and the result is a technique that will help you more accurately judge whether or not to stick with your initial answer on each individual question. It’s called confidence tracking; here's how to use it. My book "10 Steps to Earning Awesome Grades" is completely free, so check it out if you're interested in improving your grades! http://collegeinfogeek.com/get-better-grades/ Here's the podcast interview with professor Justin Couchman: http://collegeinfogeek.com/justin-couchman/ Original video on changing test answers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjwUfRTnKEA ---------- Videos you might want to watch next: 10 Study Tips for Earning an A on Your Next Exam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYWfiP7w5w0 Test Anxiety: How to Take On Your Exams Without Stress: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHfHSq7PVDU How to avoid stupid mistakes on exams: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OY6Z8gNKp-w ---------- If you want to get even more strategies and tips on becoming a more productive, successful student, subscribe to my channel right here: http://buff.ly/1vQP5ar Companion article for this video: http://collegeinfogeek.com/confidence-tracking-exam-technique/ Twitter ➔ https://twitter.com/tomfrankly Instagram ➔ https://instagram.com/tomfrankly ~ created by Thomas Frank
