“Preparation for the Worlds Together, Worlds Apart Oral Final Exam: Focusing on Key Chapters and Examples”

The oral final exam will be based on your ability to respond to the “focus questions” at the beginning of two (2) chapters of Worlds Together, Worlds Apart of your choice. In advance, I advise you to prepare answers to the focus questions in the chapters that most interest you: you should have specific examples that you can use to answer the questions.  Thus, for instance, if you were to answer a question about the “ways the Mongol Empire influenced peoples and places in Eurasia” in Chapter 10, be prepared to thoroughly explain examples like the Mongols in China or the Mongols in the Abbasid Baghdad.
