Test Prep Books/Effective Study Skills for Test Taking Anxiety

A test prep book for any test

THE WORKBOOK FOR TEST SUCCESS: How to Be Calm, Confident and Focused on Any Test, is the newest and most needed of test prep books. Written by Dr. Ben Bernstein, a teacher for 40 years and a performance psychologist for 30 years, it gives the test-taker the effective study skills, strategies to reduce test taking anxiety and a guided road map to perform better on tests.

This book is not about test content (like every book by Kaplan, Princeton Review, and the College Board).  This book is about the test taker. It speaks directly to the issue that causes millions of people to under-perform:  test stress.

In a carefully constructed and researched model, Dr. Bernstein provides the nine effective tools for being calm, confident and focused on any test.

This book is for:

• test takers (high school; college; graduate school; professional licensing exams, etc.)
• teachers
• parents
• administrators and policy makers

“We all know what it feels like to be at our best. The problem is that the experience can be erratic or unpredictable. Often, our performance is not at its peak when it really needs to be — especially when we’re in high-pressure or high- stakes situations. I have seen Ben Bernstein help scores of students achieve peak performance when it counts.  Nowhere is this truer than under the circumstances of being tested. The Workbook for Test Success is an astonishing rendition of what it is like to be coached personally by Dr. Bernstein. His strategy for helping students remain calm, confident, and focused by bringing physical, mental and even spiritual forces to bear in high-pressure performance-testing situations offers a transformative life strategy.  It is one aimed not only at bringing out the best, but also doing so reliably and consistently.”
