MCR3U FINAL EXAM REVIEW

As the end of semester two swiftly approaches, preparation for the MCR3U examination is of vital
importance. The following is a recommended guideline for studying and preparing for this final exam:

1. FINAL REVIEW HANDOUT: Complete the exam review provided.

2. TESTS and QUIZZES: Study the questions on all previous tests and
quizzes.
Reattempt any questions you answered incorrectly.
If you cannot answer a question, seek out any help
available. ( eg. see your teacher, parents, friends, etc.)
Extra help is Monday to Friday at lunch until exams.

3. GROUP STUDY SESSIONS: It may be helpful to plan group study sessions with your
friends. Choose a specific theme
(eg. Sinusoidal Functions), and bring quizzes and tests
along to discuss/do particular questions.
HINT: This is most helpful if the group is NOT too large.
and remains focused on the areas of concern.

Remember that planning and preparation is the key to success.

DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE TO STUDY.

Everything in the curriculum can reasonably be included on the exam. Exam

review sheets highlight some topics to focus on.
