UARK Finite Math Test 2 is this week, so if you're still trying to figure out the best way to prepare, here's what I recommend focusing on before you head to the testing center. Unit 2 is probability, and for many students, this is one of the most difficult units in Finite Math. I've seen class averages as low as 28% on Unit 2 exams in previous classes. But preparing for Test 2 isn't completely different from preparing for Finite Math Test 1. Instead, Finite is continuing to build on one of...

Did your Finite Math grade drop significantly after Test 1? Before you panic—or start thinking about dropping the class—there are a few things you need to understand about what that grade is actually showing you. Test 1 can be a wake-up call for many students in UARK Finite Math (MATH 20503). The exam may be harder than expected, and suddenly a grade that looked perfectly fine before the test looks much more concerning. The first thing I tell students and parents is: 1. Your Grade Is Not Your...

If you're taking Finite Math (MATH 20503) at the University of Arkansas, Test 1 is coming up. With the final quiz of Unit 1 happening now, this is the time to figure out what you know well and what you still need to practice. After more than 2,000 hours of tutoring UARK Finite Math, I see many of the same issues around Test 1: students run out of time, struggle to identify problem types, aren't familiar enough with their calculator, or second-guess answers they actually knew how to solve....
