The final exam will be given at 8:10 and will end at 10:10. In the True/False section mark "a" for True and "b" for False. In the multiple choice section you should select the best answer. Raw exam scores, the exam and exam answers will be posted today by 5:00 PM. The exam is not cumulative. Place only your Student ID Number on your Scantron not your name. Five questions will be deducted if your name or Social Security Number is placed on your Scantron.
There are one hundred questions on this exam which makes up forty-five percent of your overall grade. I would suggest that you also write your answers on your exam in addition to your Scantron as you will be allowed to keep the exam. Outside materials including dictionaries, electronic devices or anything with an on/off switch, are not to be allowed. In short, the only thing you may have on your desk is the exam, a Scantron and a pencil. “Pencils Down” means just that! I will not accept any Scantron if you write after I say "Pencils Down."
