Talking about exams

In today's Honor's Human Geography class with Mr. Schick we discussed what exam week will be like and what we should do to prepare ourselves for it. Our Human Geography exam will be on Wednesday at 10:00. I think. There will be one hundred multiple choice questions and 2 essays. Mr. Schick told us that the first essay will be on demographic transition and population pyramids. The second essay will consist of three options to choose from. Mr. Schick also explained to us that every single person in the school is taking the same subject exam at the same time and then going to the cafeteria at the same time. So, he said that it would be best to pack a snack or lunch that day in order to not waste all your time standing in a line of 700 people. After we finished discussing about exam week we went over the pop quiz we had the other day. I got a 14/20 on it. I now know that Hans Rosling teaches Global Health and not World History. After going over the test the bell rang and ended class.
