Study your notes, classroom activities, lab activities, and homework assignments! The final exam was written from a
multitude of sources…but focus
your study specifically on your notes from class!
During your study, focus on the CONCEPTS, not simply memorizing facts... Details will become clearer and make sense as you
review the major concepts in your mind.
Additional Questions/Concepts/Notes:
UNDERSTANDING THE FOLLOWING TERMS WILL HELP YOU DRAMATICALL IN YOUR ATTEMPT TO PREPARE FOR
THE EXAM. DO NOT SIMPLY DEFINE…FOCUS ON THE UNIFYING CONCEPTS BEHIND THE TERMS!
