LBST 401 – How to Make a Practice Midterm
Your practice midterm should have two sections. Except for the the short-answer
questions covering class meetings, your task is not creative, but editorial (thus, this will
largely be a copy and paste exercise): from the pool of questions available to you, choose
appropriate exam questions.
I. Alternative-choice
Five questions from Gilgamesh
Five questions from Marcus Aurelius
Five questions from Johnson's Life of Savage
Five questions from Strachey (three from Nightingale, two from Arnold).
II. Short Answer
Two questions from Hamilton
Two questions from Rollyson
Two questions for material covered in class meetings; make at least one of these a
question about a song we studied.
Please format your exam in a way that is easy to read. Leave space after each short
answer question so your colleague can answer the question.
