There are multiple examples from each chapter to identify.
Be able to look at an incorrect example and know what is wrong with it for all
the chapters. Taking this test well demands careful reading and knowledge of
exactly what is being asked for.
My suggestion for
studying is to read the chapters and the examples in the book thoroughly. Then when you have finished reading the
chapters and the examples, attempt the Exercises for Critical Thinking at the
end of each chapter. Go through the PowerPoint presentations and your notes. If
you have access to the CD, go through the study questions, and the flash cards
for the chapters. Also there is a website for students which has puzzles,
flashcards, study questions, etc. The website URL is http://www.mhhe.com/socscience/comm/lucas8e/student_index.mhtml Remember when you are taking the test to
read the questions and the answers thoroughly.
Good Luck, Everyone!!
