Document Summary

Questions should require you to integrate information from different places. But a bad example is the best way of showing you don"t know what you"re talking about. Almost always a question about a fictional country. These questions can be a good opportunity to show off knowledge across the range of the course. Use course headings as guide to possible questions. When you know where your exam is, make sure you"re certain where that room is. Probably no clock in the cineplex; bring a watch. Amount expected to be written on exam is amount you can be reasonably expected to write in the time you have. Be sure to address all of the components of the question. May need to integrate material from multiple sources (readings, lectures, conferences) Initially when the military seizes power people might be scared so there won"t be many political demands. But eventually the military has to start making decisions.
