PET - READING AND WRITING DOs and DON'Ts (2)

Make sure you know all the task types by looking at practice tests.

Make sure you do lots of general reading practice in class and at home, especially the kinds of texts used in the PET test.

Keep a vocabulary notebook to write down new words and make notes about how to use the word.

Read all the instructions carefully and look at any examples.

Make sure that you can skim and scan.

Check your answers and make sure you have written them in the correct place on the answer sheet.

Make sure that your handwriting is clear and easy to read.

Read each text before attempting to answer the questions.

Don't leave answers blank, even if you aren't sure of the answer.
Don't use a pen on the answer sheets.

Don't worry if there is a word you don't know. Try to guess its meaning.

Don't write a full, rough copy of Writing Part 2 and 3. Just write quick notes to plan your answer.

Don't worry too much about making grammatical errors in Writing Parts 2 and 3. Communicating is the important thing.
