A continuación encuentras algunos ejercicios clave y recomendaciones que debes utilizar para
preparar el examen final.

Suggestions
1. Start by organizing your notes
2. Make Practice questions/exercises
You can prepare yourself for possible questions by practicing answers to them beforehand. That
way, in case a similar question comes up on the exam, you’ll have a well thought-out answer ready
to go.
3. Make a vocabulary section
Dedicate a portion of your study guide to key terms and definitions. Check spelling.
4. Handwrite it – don’t type it
It may not seem like a big deal, but it’s critical that you handwrite your study guide, writing by hand
requires you to slow down and think about the information you are transcribing.
