TESTS
KEEP GOING OVER YOUR NOTES 3-5 MINUTES DAILY.
You will have a test every two or three weeks - over each major section. So stay on top of your notes....and use the daily quizzes as a guide to know what to study.

TEST CORRECTIONS
If you earned an "A" or "B" on your test, you will receive the credit for TEST CORRECTIONS automatically. Any grade lower demands the corrections. YOU MUST HAVE YOUR TEST ATTACHED TO THE TEST CORRECTIONS FOR CREDIT! You must also do the following:

• Provide the CORRECT ANSWER 5 TIMES
• Your answers must be in FULL SENTENCES
• You must HAND WRITE your answers
  (you may not type/print them)
• Please, NUMBER your corrections according to the numbers on the test

REMEMBER, the only way to avoid TEST CORRECTIONS is to study and be prepared for the test the FIRST time...
