In the longer term, we will have a COT essay in class next week, a test on chapters 17, 19, and 20 the week after that, and about three days to review for the mid-term which will cover chapters 1-20 (though 1-6 is minimal!). Don't wait to study for the mid-term! Start now, and spend about 10 minutes a night reviewing material.
