Pre-Modern World History Spring Exam Review Guide

The final exam will follow a similar format to that of your midterm. All of the material
covered on the exam will be cumulative from second semester only. Your exam will be at 8
AM on Tuesday May 31st in the Science Forum. Remember that you can bring your Greek
and Roman timelines to the exam, but no essay prep. I will lead a PM World History specific
review session 7:00-7:30 PM during history office hours Monday night. Happy studying!

Remember that the emphasis will be on Rome as you have not been assessed on it yet. Then
Greece, with some China mixed in—no China on the map or essay portions!
