33 questions multiple choice, T & F and a matching section. All in all an easy test IF you were awake and taking notes and not continuously talking while I was lecturing. Of course actually doing the worksheets will help also! Good luck and have a great weekend!

My homeroom: Remember to bring in MCAS snacks. Yes any soda's and candy will be confiscated! You know what to do, do not try to beat the system. Know a good deal when you see it and bring in water or juice and fruit or veggie snack. Chips and crackers are fine.

Good luck on MCAS!!!
