Dr. Garner's Exam Style

It’s highly recommended you take the TPE as it provides a small boost in your overall grade and gives you immediate feedback on how you would score on the actual exam.

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!

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.

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