University Academy World History Midterm Exam Review Guide Mr. Havens The Midterm Exam is a comprehensive exam covering all of the material that you have learned from the beginning of the second semester until now. This exam, together with the Final Exam constitutes 40% of your course grade. This exam will cover material from Unit 1: Ancient Greece and Unit 2: Ancient Roman Republic. The Exam is divided into four parts. Part I includes questions in the Fill-in-the-blank format, Part II is Multiple Choice, Part III is a Map, and Part IV is Short Answer. In order to achieve mastery on a given part, you must answer 80% of the questions correctly. If you do not achieve mastery on a given part on the first attempt, you may retake that part up to two more times within the week designated for retakes. If and when you do score 80% on any retaken parts, your score for that part will be an average of the high and low scores with a maximum possible score of 80% on that retaken part. All retakes will take place during either before or after school. I am here before school from 6:30 until 7:30 and after school from 2:50 until 4:00. If, after all of your retake attempts, you have not mastered a given part, you will receive a zero for that part.
