Community Health
HST 2270
Test One Review
The test is open-book/open-note. It is comprised of 100 multiple-choice questions on Chapters 1-6 of An Introduction to Community Health (4th Edition). The test questions go in the order of the textbook, i.e. Chapter 1 questions, Chapter 2 questions, etc. You have 2 ½ hours to complete the first test. After that time, WebCT will not accept your answers. You have one attempt at taking the exam. If you have computer difficulties, call me immediately and I can re-set you before the test deadline. Since the test has been available since February 4th, no excuses for WebCT passwords not working or computer problems will be accepted after the test deadline of 11:55 p.m. on Monday, February 21st. There will be no class on Monday, February 11th to enable you adequate time to complete the exam.
