=2008 Algebra 2A June Opportunity Day (aka Final Exam) Details=

10:15-12:00 Tuesday, June 3rd 2008
As with any test, the most important thing is that you demonstrate as much good mathematics as possible. Use your time wisely- 105 minutes is a long time, but you will probably want to use it all. Some of you will finish early. If you do, take a break and then start checking answers and re-doing those that are incorrect.

Coverage:
The exam will cover the first eight units of the course (no statistics on the exam). The questions will come directly from each of the eight unit tests.

To review:

 * Do the revision test and get help on the ones you can't do- the real test will look just like the revision test.
 * Take notes on your cheat sheet.

On the day of the Opportunity Day:

 * Make sure you're well rested- don't stay up late the night before and then try to compensate with an energy drink. Energy drinks do not focus your mind- studies show they make it more difficult to think and concentrate.
 * Get to the Opportunity Day early if possible.
 * Don't forget your cheat sheet!
 * Bring a ruler, pencil, eraser, and graph paper.

During the Opportunity Day:

 * Don't panic.
 * Remember that the only way to get a zero on the exam is to skip it, do nothing, or cheat.
 * When you finish the test, go back and slowly rework each problem. There will be credit for doing this!
