The Post Test Reflection will help you make strides toward improving your next test attempt.

In this article, I'll explain how to do a Post Test Reflection and why you you should write one.

Why is a Post Test Reflection important?

Reflecting after a major event helps us put things in context. It helps us make better decisions the next time we are faced with the same or a similar task. Why? Because now our future actions can be informed by the facts we capture right after the event rather than relying on our memory later and losing the opportunity to learn and get better.

How to do an SAT Post Test Reflection:

Doing a Post Test Reflection does not have to take a lot of time, but in my experience it is important to be intentional about setting aside the time and space to do it.

What do I mean? Just thinking about it without writing anything down, or just jotting down some quick notes before rushing off to the next activity is not going to give you the most feedback on your performance.

Set up your space and get ready.

Find a space that’s quiet and that you can spend 15-20 minutes of dedicated time to do actual writing. You’ll want to have a notebook or computer to write clear sentences. Remember, you aren’t writing an essay but you should be putting your thoughts together coherently.

Also, you might be asking yourself, “How much should I write?” It’s always a good idea to try to write more not less. We are trying to learn as much as we can from our experience! A rough rule of thumb should be a MINIMUM of 2-3 sentences for each category

Here are the 4 categories I ask my students to consider for a thorough Post Test Reflection:
