Secondary III Science and Technology
FINAL EXAMINATION REVIEW PACKAGE
Name: _____________________________________
Class: _____
This study guide is to help you prepare for your Science and Technology
exam. Your goal should be to prepare for your Sci/Tech Exam, 1 – 2 hours
during the week (you are not getting Science/Technology homework the
final two weeks of classes) and then give yourself one day off on the
weekend. The other weekend day should be devoted to your studies/exam
preparation.
The more review you do now the easier it is the week of finals. You will
feel less stress and that will help increase your success.
Pick one or two topics a night and just review for 20 - 30 minutes. For
review you could work through this study guide, work on flash cards, review
with someone at home or write out your own notes. Choose whichever
strategy works best for you.
