how do you recommend studying for masemore's bus340 tests? Will studying the powerpoint slides be sufficient or does he test a lot from the book as well? Is it mostly definitions or what? any info would be helpful

does anyone remember if the quizzes on the textbook's website were any help for his tests? Or just a waste of time?
Any tips on the kind of topics he uses for his true/false questions? ( broad topics, definitions, etc.)
Any tips would me much appreciated.

the online quizzes didnt help AT ALL-totally different information

look up everything on the review sheet up in the book and read the bolded stuff and chapter summaries & go through slides

the true false were very broad, there is really no way to study them except read the slides

^ This man speaks the truth.

Don't even touch the online quizzes.

big thanks.

it seems like most of this stuff for the first test is common sense (what is an organization) and random definitions. Is his first test pretty much definitions?

1/31/2006 10:00:04 PM

A great deal of his tests are definitions (you honestly should read every page of that thread...)

But you're making a large mistake just assuming you know those definitions. Pick a random word from the book and put 5 almost identical 18-word sentences as possible answers and tell me you won't have trouble. Then do it like 30 times, or however many Q's he has on it that aren't T/F.

^that thread talks mostly about the term project which my section doesn't have to do and later tests...i just wanted more relevant information concerning the first test but thanks for the help

gotcha

does masemore still obsess over the k drive in this class?

and you should see if you cant get him to let you do a powerpoint term project. that was the easiest 10 minutes ive ever spent on a project and a good grade booster for the class.

^yea he's in love with the I drive....the term projects not gonna happen cause i'm in a 200 person class in 3400N

2/1/2006 11:38:04 AM

I (we) were in the huge 3400 Nelson class and had the powerpoint project. Man that was a grade-saver. Sucks for yall...

2/1/2006 1:00:03 PM

I am in his little class at 8:30 this semster and we didn't get a review sheet, he just read some stuff out of the book.... Did the big class get a review sheet?

2/1/2006 5:34:51 PM

Nope we didn't, not unless its on the k drive
