After you successfully complete Lesson 12, you are ready to prepare
for the Final Exam. It would be wise for you to review all written
assignments and practice drills to date before looking at the sample
final exam. When you feel ready, print out the sample exam and complete
it using a #2 pencil. Limit yourself to two hours. Similar to the
Written Assignments, there is also a Key to this sample exam that
you can print out and use to check your work.
The sample exam is very similar to the actual Final Exam
you will be taking.
