Exam thoughts




All of the stories, and ONLY the stories (no Holden, no Ody, no Othelly…etc) will be fair game for the exam questions.  You will NOT be able to write your exam essay on  the same story you have written your paper on, nor will you be able to write the long essay on the exam on one of the stories you choose to write paragraph response about.   There will be 8 passages among which you will need to write about 5 (10 points each).  You do not need to study the story you wrote your essay on; so, how many stories will you NEED to study!

The literary terms will be matching and you will nto have any problems with any of them, I promise. 10 points

There will  one long essay  (40 points); you will know the question before the exam, but you may not bring in any written notes, thesis statements, or outlines.  So, you will have to think carefully about how you will answer.  Since you will not know ahead of time which stories the paragraph responses will be about, you will have to study/know well at least 9 stories, right?

DON’T FORGET YOUR STICK!   IF YOU HAVE EASY ACCESS TO STICKS OF APPROXIMATELY THE “RIGHT” CIAMETER, IF YOU COULD BRING 1 OR 2 EXTRAS, IT WOULD BE GREAT.
