Final Exam Preview
I just finished drafting the final exam. It is worth 45% of your final grade. There are 40 questions on the exam. In addition, there are two extra credit questions. Barring something unforeseen, the exam format will be as follows:
Essay questions - 4
Short answer questions - 11
True/False questions - 25
The T/F questions are each worth 0.5% of the final grade. The short answer questions are each worth 1% of the final grade. The essay questions are of variable weight. For example, one essay question is worth 12% of the final grade. In contrast, another essay question is only worth 2% of the final grade.
I took the exam myself and finished in 82 minutes. You will have 150 minutes to complete the exam. Like the mid-term exam, the final exam will be closed book. You may be tested on any material discussed in the assigned readings, handouts (electronic or hard copy), or lectures.
The two extra credit questions are in short answer format and each carry 0.5% of (possible) extra credit.
