3 Planning Tips for Your Entrance Exam

By Anthony Russomanno, Premier Tutor & Admissions Expert for The Princeton Review

  1. Pick a date and stick with it!  Commit to a test date and a preparation plan and stick to it. Everyone feels nervous in the days leading up to the test, putting it off will only prolong and amplify the anxiety.
     
  2. Your prep will take twice as long as you thought.  Pretty much everyone underestimates how much time they’ll need to get ready so plan accordingly.
     
  3. Stay focused.  It is quite easy to lose concentration and confidence along the way as you prepare.  Focus and persistence will keep you on track.  This even includes the day of your exam.  Forestall that moment when you give up and begin to stare at the ceiling tiles.  Multiple-choice exams are about staying engaged for as long as possible.  Think positive, concentrate on your own work and put the exam in perspective. Remember, you are in control.

Union Plus benefits are for union families. Select your union and you’ll see the Union Plus programs your union offers. Why?

Select Union

Most AFL-CIO and Change-to-Win unions participate in most Union Plus benefits, but some international unions elect not to offer all the programs. So in order to access all of the programs your union participates in, select your union from the drop down menu.

You can start using your union’s Union Plus benefits today! (No membership in Union Plus or the Union Plus Credit Card is required.)

I am a Union Plus Credit Cardholder (?)

Union Plus Credit Card

Union members are automatically eligible for their union's Union Plus benefits and you do not need to be a Union Plus Credit Cardholder in order to access your union's Union Plus benefits.

But - if you are a Union Plus Credit Cardholder, you could be eligible for additional discounts.

    Help if you don’t know your union

    Your union membership dictates which Union Plus benefits you are eligible to use.

    1. What your national union’s name (not just your local number)? Scroll through the list we have to see if you recognize your union.
    2. What type of work do you do (select your occupation)?
    3. Do you have a union member card or union publication/letter that shows the name of your union? Find something with the name of your union, not just a local number.
    4. Is there a shop steward or work colleague you can ask what the name of your union is? You can even ask your human resources department to tell you the full name of your union?
    5. Do you have a Union Plus Credit Card? If so, the name and logo for your international union should appear on the front of the card.
