PSY3320 Self Formulated Multiple Choice Exam Preparation Questions & Answers

Description

PSY3320 has a lot of content packed into each lecture and this can be quite overwhelming. Since not much practice material is provided in the lead up to the final exam, I created this document of practice questions covering the entire unit. The final exam is only multiple choice so this document provides perfect practice for the exam. These self formulated questions and answers are very useful in ensuring that you understand each concept. Tracking your progress will be useful to identify problem areas and topics that you need to focus on more. This document was created using Excel so that each page corresponds to week 1-12 (eg. page 1 is week 1, page 2 is week 2 etc). Each week includes 20-40 practice multiple choice questions 4 options (A-D) and an answer in the final column. Completing these questions and having the answers available will allow you to practice as much as you like and provide yourself with more confidence going into the exam.
