What to study for the final exam

You will have a 100 question test on vocabulary at the end of the second week of January. Study your "frases de conexión" lists 1,2, and 3. Also study the phrases that are listed on this blog using por and para (see por and para blog notes posting). Finally, study the vocabulary on the following pages: Imagina page 4 (Relaciones sentimentales), Imagina page 42 (En la ciudad), Imagina page 80 (Los medios de comunicación) and Imagina pg 120 (Entre familia). All of this is fair game for material to show up on the test. It is a multiple choice test with two kinds of questions: fill in the blanks with a word bank provided and sentences that you read and decide whether they are using the vocabulary correctly.

You will have a 100 question test during finals week on the grammar studied in class. I will base the verbs/questions on this exam on the following pages from Imagina, my personal notes and En Marcha mentioned below. There will not be any surprises if you study the followign pages from the following sources:
