Exam 2

You will take Exam 2 in this classroom on 10/19.

• Half on scantron
• Half on piece of paper

Exam 2

For the scantron portion, you will need

• a No2 pencil
• your Penn State ID number (it is on your ID card, or you can get it from LionPath)
• I would memorize this number and write down your ID on the scantron immediately (saves time)

Penalty

If you do not provide your Penn State ID number, your grade will be deducted 10%.
