Dr. Garner's Exam Style

Exceptions-to-the-rule are frequently introduced to students for the first time on exams or briefly mentioned during class, but with no examples.

Make time for the TPE’s, because they are of equal difficulty compared to your actual exam, and the practice tests are ~50% easier and less vigorous than your actual exam.

Unfortunately, past midterms and finals are not shared regularly with students. You’ll only have access to practice exams which tend to be the same practice set shared 3+ years in a row.

Professors frequently create 1-2 hour videos of practice exam solutions. They’re focused on traditional long-form problem solving, and not heavy on tricks, shortcuts, or backdoor methods for getting correct answers fast. Also, students are unable to ask their own questions. Tutor 1-on-1 with me to ask your own questions, and learn tons of shortcuts!
