English 1AA3 - Nadine Attewell
Hi everyone,

Just wondering if anyone has taken 1AA3 with Dr. Attewell before, if so just wondering what the exam format will be like?

Thank you.

Oh my it's been a long time but I had her when I took this course on my first year. That was four years ago.

Her exam format is all short and long answer questions. I don't quite remember but one section of the test was she gave us a list of quotations from all the readings we had and then explain the significance of it based on the novel it came from. Another will be an essay type question where a question is given based one of the readings and answer it in an essay format.

One question: what are the books she is tackling this semester?

Oh ok. She used most of the same readings as she did when I took the course. Thank you, I was just curious.
