For CSC104, having done all the quizzes, assignments,and tests, I know which parts I understand quite well and which sections I struggle with.
Overall, I did fairly well on the quizzes throughout the semester, and therefore, I think I am comfortable with DrRacket now.
Where I struggled in this course was the first sections of the term tests where there are definitions I had to know from the lecture notes and the extra notes posted on our website.
I think if I spend enough time studying the notes thoroughly, I can manage to do better on that part.
Here are few ways how I will prepare for the final exam:
1) Lecture notes and extra notes posted on the site.
- Spend a lot of time reading over all the materials carefully. If I don't spend enough time here, I will not know what to write during the exam.
- make my own study notes. I think it's a good way to memorize the terms in this course because there are handful of them.
2) DrRacket
- look through all the links posted on the website
- understand how check-expect and definitions work.
- know the definitions parts as well as interactions parts.
3) Managing myself
- start studying early so I have enough time to go over and understand all the materials
- Get a good sleep the night before so I will be able to concentrate during the exam
- Eat well before the exam.
Good luck to myself and everyone else with their exams!!
