Советы и указания
Выполнение всех заданий вступительного экзаменационного теста требует
большого внимания. Для правильного понимания изложенного в задании
требования необходимо, во-первых, внимательно прочитать его, и только
потом перейти к выбору правильного ответа. Помните, что из предложенных
вариантов ответов лишь один является правильным, остальные –
неправильными. Учтите, что в заданиях в одних случаях требуется найти
вариант, соответствующий правильному ответу, в других случаях –
неправильному. Поэтому, переходя от выполнения одного задания к другому,
будьте внимательны, чтобы при выполнении избрать верный подход.
Учитесь разумно использовать время. Не тратьте время на долгие
размышления над теми вопросами, ответы на которые не можете подыскать
сразу. Выполняйте те задания теста, в правильности знания которых вы
убеждены. После выполнения этих заданий возвращайтесь к пропущенным
заданиям. Если вы уверены, что время, отпущенное на экзамен подходит к
концу, а вы сомневаетесь в правильности ваших ответов, изберите тот
вариант, правильность которого, на ваш взгляд, является наиболее вероятной.
Помните, что как в случае отсутствия ответа, так и в случае неправильного
ответа вы по существу не получаете балла.
От правильного заполнения бланка зависит ваш экзаменационный балл.
Начинайте работать с черновика, однако не следует забывать, что черновик
не подлежит проверке. Проверяется лишь бланк с ответами.
