ITEC Sample Theory Papers - Revision for Exams

Getting your hands on ITEC sample theory papers may prove very difficult as ITEC do not permit colleges to hand out past papers for revision. As a result a lot of students report that they do not feel prepared for the exam because they do not know the type of questions that could come up in the exam and nor are they familiar with the layout of the paper.

I have been teaching for years and know that both of these issues are quite serious in determining whether a student will fail or pass an exam.

I have found, when starting revision for exams, the most successful way to prepare for exam success is to constantly test students on the areas they are learning.

First of all I would recommend to my students to find a study guide that contains a large number of multiple choice questions similar to those found on ITEC's theory papers. It is also a good idea to have a variety of crossword puzzles as these are a fantastic way to quiz yourself. They also make learning fun which is a bonus for any student.

At the beginning of every class I give my students a written test using these multiple choice questions. We grade them straight away so the student is then aware of any work they need to go over again. I finish up the class with about 20 minutes remaining and get my students to complete crossword puzzles on the work we have just covered.

Using these methods means that once the end of the year arrives and it is time for revision, the student has a folder full of tests and crossword puzzles.

Anatomy and Physiology Study - Tips to Pass Your Exams

Anatomy and Physiology study can be very difficult. Once the dreaded end of year exams draw closer students start to feel completely overwhelmed with the amount of work they have to revise.

For the most part this tough subject is broken down into 12 body systems;

Cells and Tissues
Skin
Muscular System
Skeletal System
Endocrine
Nervous
Lymphatic
Cardiovascular
Digestive
Respiratory
Urinary
Reproductive

Terms, functions, diseases, disorders, definitions....these are examples of the type of things students need to cover on each of these body systems. Therefore it is perfectly understandable how students become so overwhelmed. This being said, passing your Anatomy and Physiology exams is definitely not impossible.

Some tips I would recommend you follow include;

1. Have a question bank that you can use throughout your studies. The best format of questions to use for your revision is multiple choice. The idea would be to take a number of questions every day, about 30, and learn them. After about 3 or 4 days test yourself on what you have learned. This is a great way to see what questions you need to learn again.

2. Anatomy and Physiology quizzes and puzzles are a great way to learn this tough subject. They are good fun too! Examples of the best puzzles include crosswords and true/false questions. Your knowledge of the body systems will definitely improve if you repeat these puzzles over and over again. You should aim to complete the puzzles without using your notes.

3. Have an organised revision plan typed out. Plan exactly what area you are revising and on what dates. Once you have a structured plan in place you will be able to see what work you need to cover. Type your plan out, print it and put it on the wall in front of your desk.

There is a lot of work involved with Anatomy and Physiology study but try not to panic too much. Once you have a structured plan and a good study guide you will find that passing your exams will not be impossible.
