*3 Test-Taking Tips for Praxis 5001 Math*
1. *Don’t use the calculator for everything* - ETS gives an on-screen calculator, but for simple fractions and percents, mental math is faster.
2. *Eliminate wrong answers first* - Multiple choice में 2 options गलत लगते ही हटा दो। Chance of guessing बढ़ जाएगा।
3. *Manage your time* - If a question takes more than 2 minutes, skip it and come back later. Don’t get stuck.
*Top 3 Mistakes Students Make on Praxis 5001*
1. *Not reading the question fully* - ETS loves to put "NOT" or "EXCEPT" in questions.
2. *Forgetting units* - Answer in feet but question asks in inches? You’ll lose the point.
3. *No practice with timing* - 90 minutes sounds like a lot, but it goes fast. Practice with a timer.
