Review Tips for Final

Your final is in Fisher Lecture Hall [downstairs] on Monday 8 December at 3 p.m.; Those whose last names begin with A through L in 255 FLH, those with last names beginning with M through Z in 275 FLH, in both cases downstairs ONLY. 

It will be a multiple-choice exam of 80 questions.  There will be more stress on the last two chapters, 19 and 20, that were not tested earlier, than on other material [of the order of say 7 to 10 questions directly relevant to those chapters, as opposed to at most 3 or 4 (in some cases much fewer) directly relevant to other chapters].  Remember, the material is cumulative, so if you are comfortable with the later material you are probably OK with most of the earlier.  Don’t panic or be overly nervous; most of you will do better than you expect, you know more than you think you do. 
 

I will do a review on Sunday 7 December 3.00 p.m. in room BEL 0102.

 The best preparation for the exam is the practice multiple choice tests in the Study Guide and the www.CourseCompass.com or MyEconLab website.

 If you qualify for, and wish to take, the make-up on Friday December 12 at 5.30 p.m., you need to see me after class on Monday or Wednesday to get a signed permission slip.
