EOCT (End of Course Test)


Question Posted Wednesday October 25 2006, 5:20 pm

I have to take an EOCT for my U.S. History class. It's near Christmas and it is supposed to cover everything that we're supposed to be learning in U.S. History. However, my teacher doesn't teach us anything, so for the few months that we've been in school, we've had open book tests and quizes. That's why we're all passing the class [because we don't know anything because of the teacher].

We need to pass the EOCT in order to pass the class. ALSO, the EOCT is 15% of our U.S. History grade! How do we all prepare for this huge test, and how can we find out what specific topics are covered in the EOCT?

**The EOCT is for highschoolers in Georgia

Additional info, added Wednesday October 25 2006, 5:23 pm:
Our teacher never gives notes or anything. THATS why we dont know anything about U.S. History, and THAT'S why I'm worried about passing the EOCT with an A or B. =[.

i think you should definately talk to your principle about this kind of thing or some sort of authoritative figure in your school, like a dean. they can usually straighten things out.

Look through all the sections your teacher " attempted " to cover and didn't do good in. Make note of the vocabulary and make flash cards to study for the test that way. When you make the flash cards write the word and draw a picture on one side and then write the definition on the other side. I can tell you for sure that there will be vocabulary on your test. For important dates try making a time line or also do flash cards. Write the year and draw a picture symbolizing what might have happened that year and write what happened on the back. On your test try to think back to what you drew on your flash cards. Important people - think of some way to remind yourself of why they were important. For example, Abraham Lincoln is on the penny so he had to be important for something. Read over your material over and over and write out somethings. Take notes of things you think would be most likely to be on the test and rewrite them a couple times. Maybe you are a visual learner and have to see it a couple of times before it gets into your mind. ♥ Hope I helped. Good luck.
