Instructions:  PLEASE READ

This is not a graded test!

 

You need only to complete it to receive full credit.

 

This is a test to see what you know at the end of the class. Please try to answer all the questions you think you know and make educated guesses on the rest. Please give me a solid effort throughout.

Do not get frustrated here! I need to know what you know and don't know. Then I will know what I have been successful with, and where I have been unsuccessful.

 

 

Copy the answer sheet below to a word document and then type your answers on it. THEN send it to me via email.

I will not give you a grade until I receive a completed test.
