I *suck* at taking tests

You know how some people might not know the material all that well, but they are pros at "test-taking"?

Well, I am not one of them.

I *know* the material. Heck, we are covering something that I enjoy immensely now, so it's inevitable that I know the material.

Yet, I fall for every. single. trick. question on those damn tests. I start questioning myself and when I *knew* right away (!) what the answer was I think to myself: "Nah... it can not be *that* easy... it's gotta be something different". When it indeed *is* that easy.

Sigh.

Well, as I tell my DD - we are in school not to get the grades, but to get the knowledge.

(still mad at myself though )

I do this too. I am a terrible test taker. You have my utmost sympathy.
