MECHANICS OF EXAM AND YOUR PREPARATION
(1) The final is entirely multiple choice (80 questions)
with approximately the partition of 90% qualitative
and 10% quantitative. Although a choice of answers
will be provided for the quantitative problems, you
obviously must be able to perform the correct
calculation in order to select the correct answer.
(2) Do not memorize equations! I realized that we've
seen a significant number. The intention of the exam
is to determine how well you can manipulate data and
reason logically. Data tables and any equations you
may need will be provided.
(3) Review of your old exams is the best method of
preparation. Pay particular attention to those
questions and problems that gave you difficulty the
first time around and ensure that you can answer
them now.
(4) For qualitative prep, review your class notes and
the Key Terms at the end of each chapter. Prep in
this area lends itself very well to group study.
(5) Quantitatively, choose several representative
problems in each chapter and work them unassisted.
If you are stumped, resort to your homework only to
just get you past the obstacle. This method of
"minimal assistance" is particularly effective! It’s
analogous to having a “spotter” while you’re
attempting to lift a heavy weight at the gym. Get the
hint? 
