Make sure you update your software and download your exams.
Additionally...ExamSoft registration will soon be closing for the Fall 2016 semester on 12/2/2016. If you wish to type your exam, instead of write by hand, visit www.examsoft.com/capitallaw for more information. Exams need to be downloaded at least an hour before the exam. But don't wait until the last minute.
A few basic tips to remember..
Read the instructions, in full
Don't just start writing
Think about your answer and organize your thoughts
Outline your answer or make notes before you begin to write (remember, listing facts is not the same as analyzing them)
Don't write in conclusions, walk the answer through the analysis
Beware of the time, but don't watch the clock, you don't want to get to the last long essay with only 15 minutes left to answer
If you feel bogged down, talk to another student, faculty, or staff member. Everyone here wants everyone to do well, and will take the time to help you.
And Remember....
