Tips for Taking Matching Tests

By Melissa Kelly, About.com

Tip #1: Read the question carefully before you begin matching items together. Make sure you understand what you are being asked to match.

Tip #2: You should spend your time reading the column that has longer choices because you will be able to scan the shorter choices quicker as you go through the questions.

Tip #3: Go through and match all those you are absolutely sure of first.

Tip #4: Cross out each answer as you match it - this will help make it easier to see what choices you have left.

Tip #5: Make you best guess on the rest of the answers - hopefully you will have eliminated some of the choices reducing your chance for error.
