• DO NOT try and cram everything in the weekend before the exam, it will not work. Try studying a little bit every night for 10 minutes or so-‐ pick an unchecked box and study it!
• Do the review packet-‐ it is similar in format to the test and covers nearly everything you need to know. If you have trouble with a portion, look it up or ask for help!
• Vocabulary and grammar are 50% of the test. Make sure you know those vocab words and understand grammar concepts (ESPECIALLY –AR VERB CONJUGATION)!!
• Use the resources given on the first page to help you study, and ask for help if you need it.
Check off each item you feel competent in; study the others until you can check them off. Look it up if

¡OJO! Military time is used to show AM or PM by using a 24 hour clock. It is used in many Spanish-‐speaking countries. Here is a trick to help you figure out the military time. The times from 1 AM to 12 PM remain in their original form. Once you get to 1 PM just start adding 12 to the numbers. 1 PM would equal 13:00, 2 PM would equal 14:00, and so on. So, for example: 7:00=7:00 am 13:00=1:00 pm 17:00=5:00 pm
“I still don’t get it!” Search “how to calculate military time” online.
