Last week we took the High School Placement Test, which is also known as the HSPT Exam. In English we received packs that will help us study for the exam. I took my HSPT exam on Sunday, January 23, 2016. I have been studying ever since late November and December. The high schools that i am applying are Notre Dame which is my first choice and Bishop Alemany high school that is my second choice. Since Ms. Stronks gave us the packet a few weeks before the High School Placement Test I had been able to study even more the exam. Another thing that helped me repair for the exam is getting books that have activities that will help you. The book has mathematics and English. There are more specific concepts that were on the test. About a month ago I took at practice High School Placement Test; I got a chance to improve the topics that I had struggled with. Around the same month I got to take another practice test in another school. I had not as many problems in the previous practice exam had, but the other practice exam didn’t explain why you got the answer. I learned from my mistakes what I did wrong; I also got a chance to learn some topics that could be on the HSPT. As I said in the beginning I had the test about a week ago. We had a pretty long test that lasted more than two hours. I had to wake up early in the morning to go to Notre Dame and take the exam. I was focused on the test and had no distractions. Another thing that we did in class was take notes that can help us on the day of the exam, and that helped. This is what I learned/ did this week.
