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.

Most exams are designed for students to finish, or answer accurately, but not BOTH at the same time.

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.

The recent online exams via Canvas followed the same question format, type and source as exams before Spring 2020. This means that old exams can be studied for reference in the current semester.

Avoid Distractions

Silence your phone, videos, and tell family to stop bugging you to create a focused environment.

Ask Questions

Be bold and ask direct questions when you're stuck - there's value in wrong answers so you can recognize and avoid them.

Don’t Cram

Plan ahead at least 2 weeks. Study by chapter so you absorb in digestible chunks.
