The Swedish Scholastic Aptitude test on April 5th is approaching – we’ve got the tools to get you through!
The Swedish Scholastic Aptitude Test (SweSAT) is rapidly approaching, and perhaps the nervousness has started to kick in? Whether it’s your first, second, or third time, the SweSATs can feel overwhelming. Which is why we’ve gathered information, tips, and tools to calm, strengthen, and prepare you.
By now, the invitation to the test should be in both your inbox and on hogskoleprov.nu. The invitation contains important information about where, when, and how you’ll be taking your test—so be sure to read it carefully, and even a few extra times.
Preparation the week before
Take a final look at the different sections of the test and review your strengths and weaknesses. What do you need to practice a bit more on, and what do you feel confident about? Once you’ve assessed your knowledge, you can practice with past tests via hpguiden, or why not print a few tests out and arrange a mock test day with some friends? Grab a stopwatch and follow the real schedule, which can be found here. The same schedule applies on April 5th.
Set aside an hour each day to study the areas that feel extra difficult.
The day before the test
It’s Friday evening, and tomorrow is the big day—time to make sure the car is fueled up, the ticket is ready for the bus or train ride, and everything you need is in place.
Here are a few tools we recommend you bring with you: a pencil, an eraser, a regular ruler, and a highlighter. Bring several pencils and extra graphite, it’s good to have a backup if one pen runs out. Earplugs are allowed, but keep in mind that you might not be able to hear when the test leader makes time announcements.
Prepare a lunch box to bring with you. 50 minutes for lunch flies by quickly when you need to find a place, get there, order, pay, eat, and get back to the exam room. Pack your food, drinks, and snacks that don’t need to be refrigerated overnight, so you have something to eat and drink during the shorter breaks that are only 20 minutes long. You cannot eat or drink while taking the test.
Take a look at the test day schedule and plan your trip based on distance and location. Allow extra time for any unexpected events, so you don’t arrive late. If you arrive late, you won’t be allowed to enter, and we definitely don’t want to risk that!
