Preparation of a test or an exam is very important and it begins at home. It means the work that pupils do before having a test.
Most of the pupils revise alone. This method may be the cause of failure of many of them. So, it's clear that a group preparation is better. Children who revise in groups may have better chances of success than those who revise alone. When they work in groups, they help one another by asking and answering questions that they might have in exams. Group preparation may also reduce stress and gives opportunity to pupils to be more relaxed (not stressful).
