When do you feel like you have a lot of pressure on you? Well I had a lot of pressure on me when I was taking my middle school test. When I got inside the school I was in a group to take 4 tests. I took the tests in this order, Raven/Logic, Reading, Writing and Math.
I got two raven test packets when I just entered the testing room. One was a green book and the other was a blue book. The green book wasn't graded because it was just to get you used to the problems on the test. When I finished the green book we were told to stop. This test was sort of like the MSA(Maryland State Assessment). When I did the blue book it started easy but it got harder every question. Eventually it got so hard that I had to guess the last question.
After I finished the raven test we had to move on to the reading comprehension test. It was all multiple choice so it was easy. We had to read informational text and answer questions. The text gave me new information that I didn't know. Some questions were confusing so I had to go back and check the text again. I had to write an essay for the writing part of the test (if you want to see it Click Here). We had to extend time for this part of the test because so many people needed extra paper to write their essay.
Then it was time for math. We had 20 min. for 50 questions. Some people felt rushed because we only had 20 min. If you wanted to do all the questions on time you would have to do 2.5 questions per minute. I finished all the questions and had time to double check my answers. Some questions were easy while others took more time to solve. The questions asked you to find which column was greater. You chose A if column A was greater, B if column B was greater, C if both columns were equal and D if there wasn't enough information given.
I finished the test that included, Raven, Math , Reading and Writing.
