Exam Schedule

Students should prepare themselves for exams by studying their notes and referring back to work covered over the term. English students may find it useful to review the movies watched in class, and reading through the novels again for key chapters.

BE PREPARED for your exam. Bring sharp pencils, and/or pens along with ruler, calculator and erasers if required. Notes will not be used, not are ipods or other musical devices allowed.

Advance to my wiki site for additional notes and PowerPoints studied in class.
Good luck to all.
