Tips and Hints:
- Although this is an open-book, open-notes exam, you won't have much time to be searching your notes.
- Therefore, you should study and prepare as if it's a closed-notes exam.
- When you think you have studied enough: take the 10 question practice test
- If you score 80% or higher on the practice test, you should do fine on the real exam
- If you score 70% or below on the practice test, you should spend more time studying for the real exam.
- Remember, you can also go back and re-take the Weekly quizzes to study.
