In addition to your basic utility knife, you'll need some special tools for cutting drywall sheets.
For making square cuts, use a drywall T-square. Set your sheets of drywall upright with the smooth side out. Set the T-square on the top edge and line it up with your measurement. Run a utility knife along the side of the "T" to score your cut. Snap the sheet back to break the sheet along the cut. Then cut the paper back with a utility knife.
For making cuts around obstacles you can use a drywall saw. Just use a back-and-forth motion like you would for any hand saw.
Cutting your sheets slightly too big is better than too small. You can always shave the ends off with a rasp.
For cutting around electrical boxes use a keyhole saw. Just punch the tip through the drywall and cut along each side. You can also use a power jig saw for these cuts.
For round cuts, like around light fixture boxes, use a circle cutter. Find the center of your circle and punch in the center marker. Adjust the arm to the radius of your circle and use it to score the perimeter of the circle. Do the same on the other side of the sheet. Tap out the cut out with a hammer. You can also use a compass to draw the circles, and a keyhole saw to cut them.
There's also a power tool professionals use that's designed specifically for cutting out holes for electrical boxes and fixtures. It's like a drywall router, and they use it to cut the holes after the sheets of drywall are up. This is a lot faster then cutting them all by hand.
If you do end up renting one of these power routers be careful so you don't strip the electrical wiring inside.

Hoardings have been erected around a site in Redhill as construction workers prepare for a town centre redevelopment to get under way.
The first stage of the revamp of Warwick Quadrant will see surveys carried out before the demolition of Lombard House - expected to happen in November and take around 20 weeks to complete.
It is part of a major redevelopment project to build a new Sainsbury's store, Travelodge hotel, gym and improved car parks.
Hundreds of jobs are expected to be created in the town as a result of the scheme, which is a joint project by Sainsbury's, Aviva Investors and Reigate & Banstead Borough Council.
Alan Ayres, Sainsbury's project manager, said: "It will be extremely exciting to see work start on this redevelopment which, once finished, will provide fantastic new facilities for the town centre."
Main construction works are anticipated to start next spring with a target date of completion in late summer 2016.
Councillor Natalie Bramhall, borough council executive member for property and regeneration, said: "We're pleased that work is soon to get under way on this important site, which is key in delivering our regeneration ambitions to create a thriving and prosperous town centre.
"The scheme will vastly improve facilities for local residents and businesses and the several hundred jobs created will be great for the local economy."

The chairman of the board of the American Royal said tearing down Kemper Arena is a key element to improving the Royal, and that's coming from a man whose family name is on the building.
Mariner Kemper is the chairman of the board of the American Royal. After a group that wanted to remodel the existing building for a youth sports facility backed out this week, Kemper said the city should tear the arena down.
"The American Royal's numbers are not as good as all of us would have liked, but we've been forced to operate in subpar derelict facilities," Kemper said.
Kemper Arena hasn't had many concerts or other events since Sprint Center opened. It costs Kansas City more than $2 million per year.
The American Royal said it has a plan to demolish the arena and refurbish the Royal's other buildings. The plan calls for $30 million from the city. The city's plan is for $20 million.
"We now have an option between the Kemper plan in some form, or the status quo," said Scott Taylor of the Kansas City Council.
Kemper said Sporting Kansas City, which moved from Missouri to a new stadium in Kansas, should serve as the model to rebrand and revitalize the American Royal.
"The government found and saw that vision, backed it and built a great stadium out in Kansas," said Kemper. "Look what Sporting is today."
Kemper also said a new American Royal complex in the West Bottoms area will help lead to an economic revival in that part of Kansas City.
