How to Study for Exams in Spanish 111 - 212
Exams in Spanish courses are meant to support the efforts you will be making inside and outside the classroom to learn Spanish. Consequently, a student who thoughtfully prepares the short homework assignments, fully engages in classroom activities, and makes an effort at all times to make meaningful new words and structures as they are encountered, will find the tests to be very predictable and even fun. Remember to review important items from previous chapters as well because the purpose of an exam is to consolidate our learning.
Please take advantage of the Practice Tests in MySpanishLab. They, along with the sections in your text called ¿Cómo andas? are excellent reviews and preparations.
All Spanish exams are “cumulative” in the sense that we don't want to forget how to say “Buenos días” just because we have learned “Buenas noches.” This is good news, though, because structures and vocabulary previously encountered constantly reappear, gradually becoming second nature to us, and thus becoming fully-incorporated into our Spanish-speaking selves.
