VERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY, BIOLOGY 03051, SECTIONS 001R, 002R
FINAL EXAM OUTLINE, SPRING 2000
Dr. W. Crone (303 FTZ, 629-7439, cronewil@hvcc.edu, http://www.hvcc.edu/academ/faculty/crone/index.html)
The final exam for us will be Thursday, May 18, 2000 from 11:15 AM to 1:15 P.M. in BRN 002 (the usual lecture hall for the course), with me as proctor. The final exam consists of 150 multiple choice questions. The exam is comprehensive, with (approximately) 10 questions per week of material. There are no exemptions from the final.
You will be allowed a crib sheet for this zoology final exam. Crib notes are notes that the student is permitted to use during an examination. Their value is derived from the effort each individual student spends constructing them. They function best when they contain resources usually available to be looked up in the real world (hint: write down what you have trouble remembering and tend to look in the text for).
For this examination, crib notes must be hand written on one side only by the person using it. It may be no larger than 8.5" X 11" (standard size paper). No xeroxes, mechanical, or electronic copies are permitted. If you forget your cribsheet or if it does not fit the requested format, you will not be allowed to use one.
The crib notes must be available for inspection by the proctor before the beginning of the examination. One single sheet, written on one side, may be kept and used on the table surface only. A single mark on the second side nullifies permission to use the sheet. Bringing crib notes out after the exam begins is not permitted. The crib sheet is to be handed in with your exam. Also, bring enough sharpened #2 pencils, as I will not be supplying any.
Please do not call the Biology office, my office, or (especially) my home for grades: I WILL NOT give grades over the phone. If you want to find out your grade before the official mailing, give me an self-addressed, stamped envelope or an email before the end of that Thursday the 18th. I plan to be submitting the grades sometime on Friday the 19th.
I will have additional office hours during the last week of class, as no zoology labs are scheduled: Thursday, 5/11, 2-4 and Friday 5/12: 10-1. I probably will be using the 10-11 hour as the"recitation" time for section 002R on that Friday, if those in that section would be interested.
Suggestions for study
For the first 3/4 of the course, weeks 1-11, you will find that review as you did for the three hour exams will highlight the approach and emphasis I make. Many of the exam questions will be familiar, but not the same (A-D choices as vs. A-E choices, for example). For the last portion of the course, weeks 12-16, remember that each week has approximately 10 questions. I will highlight useful areas of study and go over practice questions during the last few scheduled Friday recitations. The standard approach holds: I will test on those major issues discussed in lecture and/or that are on the weekly lecture handout sheets (with the occasional question from homeworks and the video review sheets). Good luck.
weeks 12 and 13: cardiovascular, pulmonary, and exercise physiology
weeks 13 and 14: nervous system
week 15: renal system
week 16: reproduction and development
