Secondary I Science and Technology
FINAL EXAMINATION REVIEW PACKAGE
Name: _____________________________________
Class: _____
This study guide is to help you prepare for your Science and Technology
exam. Your goal should be to study for 30-60 minutes during the week and
then give yourselves a break on the weekend. A break from studying for
finals not from homework or studying for regular tests!
The more review you do now the easier it during the weeks of exams. You
will feel less stress and that will help increase your success.
Pick one or two topics a night and just review for 10 - 15 minutes. For
review you could work through this study guide, work on flash cards, review
with someone at home or write out your own notes. Choose whichever
strategy works best for you.
