Posts class notes. Most people say its not worth going to class (it is sometimes a little boring) but if you do, it'll cut down on studying time a lot.

Posts old tests. If you just study the answers to those, you'll probably get a low B, but if you take the time to understand every term on the practice, you'll easily get an A

Boring class, but she knows her information, the trick is to see if you can actually memorize everything.

i love mcvay her tests are cake for a tough subject, she seems to enjoy herself although her class is a bore and tough to get through, i wouldn't go if she didn't do clicker attendance (i think its used for rounding grades)
