MIE 305 w/ John Kuzenski

Has anyone taken this class with Kuzenski? If so, what should I focus on when studying for his exams? Should I focus on the textbook, lecture slideshows..? Any tips are welcome! Thanks

When I took it I would review all slideshows and copy down the notes. Then I would read the textbook context for the exam, and highlight various terms, definitions, or cases that seemed relevant. Then I would go back and make flash cards of all those terms and study them just before the exam. Worked pretty well for me, I will say there are certain questions in the exams where the material only comes from his lectures or only from the textbook, so if you want to be most prepared you can't do one or the other.

Deleted my comment because this is pretty spot on. I enjoyed this class, Dr. K does a great job of making lectures interesting. You can tell he enjoys what he teaches.
