What are college 'final exams' and how can I prepare for them?
Final exams are the tests, papers or laboratory assignments that are given at the end of a quarter or semester. And many times they are the cumulative summary of everything that you have learned in that course over the 10 to 15 weeks, or how ever long the term is. The final exam is going to be your chance to show the instructor that you have learned everything that they have taught. The final exams also can sometimes just be based upon the material that's in the preceding three or four weeks. So it is very important for you to know what is going to be on that final exam. Ask your instructors, and study with your peers. Don't go into that final exam cold. It is very important.
