How to Prepare
- Make sure you do all the problems that have been
assigned. The problems (or parts of them) make excellent exam
questions.
- Work through the past exams. These (or variations of them)
often appear on exams.
- While you can print your one page of notes, preparing it by hand is
an excellent way to study. A great way to prepare the notes is to condense the Skeletal Notes and Focus Questions you have been taking when working on each lab during the semester (these are available at the top of each lab to help you take notes and study during the semester). These are great for reviewing and generating the exam notes. Go through each set of lab notes and notes from each lecture and consolidate your list to fit on a single sheet of paper. Include standard formats or templates for coding constructs and design patterns, as well as samples of recurring themes.
