Please see Mrs. James before you begin studying from books (reading and taking notes
from a textbook is the key to winning. . . can't stress this enough),
materials to study and important tips.
1. Check the official FBLA competitive event site: FBLA National Website with contest information.
2. If you have a presentation/speaking event, make sure to check the RATING SHEETS to find out criteria for scoring.
3.
If you have an event concerning Technology, it is advisable that you
take Introduction to Technology Concepts and Technology Concepts
Practice tests. Questions involving the basics are found on all
technology related events. The same goes for Business. It is advisable
that you take Introduction to Business, Marketing, and Economics
Practice Tests to get an overview of this area.
4.
When you take a practice test, circle all the questions you are unsure
of. Then go over your incorrect answers and memorize what you got wrong
and what you guessed on. Remember, just because you had a correct guess
doesn't mean you know the information.
