I’ve been studying Insurance all day. I opened my school email to send a friend some notes and to my surprise I have an email from my professor stating the exam is open book, open notes. Our exam is multiple choice so this is a little surprising. What was more surprising is I had never heard him hint of this before. But hey, I’m not complaining. I think I would have been completely prepared, but I am appreciative of having the notes as my safeguard. I think where you get into trouble with open book tests is when you rely on the notes instead of relying on your studying and using the materials as a fallback. The one thing I’m all but sure of now is that the exam will be entirely composed of application rather than definitional questions. I’ll study for one or two more hours and walk into the exam with notes in hand.
On a seperate note, AudioCaseFiles.com left a comment on my previous blog entry reviewing their operation. If your school doesn’t have ACF, you might want to take a look at their open offer.
