1 Algebra 2 Final Exam Name: Read the directions below. You may lose points if you do not follow these instructions. The exam consists of 30 Multiple Choice questions worth 1 point each and 5 Short Answer questions worth 4 points each for 50 points total. Do your own work. Write your name on each page submitted. Include your name in the file name too. All exams must be completed and submitted to me by Friday, June 9 rd at 11:59PM. All IEP and 504 requirements will be honored. Since I will be grading all of these by hand, multiple choice and short answers must be submitted on the same date. If you chose to wait and submit the short answer questions on a different date than you submit the multiple choice answers, you will lose 2 points/per day. Work must be shown for all Short Answer questions. No work shown = no credit earned. I will not accept corrections for this Final Exam. Review your test before you submit it. You only need to submit the multiple-choice answers sheet and the short answer questions on pages 8, 9, and 10. Any questions, please call me. Page 1 of 10
