Exam Two Study Guide
Remember, study guides are meant to guide you, they are not a comprehensive list of exam questions. If you want 100%
or something close to it, then you have to study 100%, of the material. This means you know and understand every item in
your lecture notes/on this study guide and how they interrelate with one another. Good Luck!
