There will be 45 minutes to answer 20 multiple choice questions, and 45 minutes to answer 2 free response questions.   (the exam category is worth 20% of your grade, and is the last chance to improve the Exam category.  Right now, your Qtr 3 Exam score is accounting for 20% of your grade).
+There will be some multiple choice questions worth 55% of your exam score, and 2 free-response questions which will be worth 45% of your exam score.
