Unit 2.A.1page 151through Unit 3Cup to and including page 353.

  • For your exam, know all the bold-faced terms in the text.
  • This study guide is not meant as a stand-alone study guide for the final exam.
  • I will collect this study guide the day of the final exam. It will be graded for correctness and completeness!

1)I suggest you go through the power point I made (link on my website and on MBC) and write down the answers to the following questions. Have your book available to assist you with areas where you need a more detailed explanation.

2)Go through thisstudy guide a second time and try to answer all the questions from memory.

3)If you are still missing more than 10-20 percent of the questions I suggest you read the book and go over your weak areas until you can master all of the concepts below. There are plenty of practice questions at the end of each chapter to assist you with the review process.
