Mr.Fayez Final Exam Tips for MicroP Students

Tips for the final exam:

1. The instruction set, register table, Interrupt vector table will be provided with the question paper.
2. No calculator allowed.
3. Use meaningful labels and comments.
4. Start with the definition questions that you know and do them quickly.
5. Put the definitions in point (or list) form, not paragraph nor essay, if possible
6. Do the programs that you can do quickly first, because thinking about the difficult ones can consume your time
7. When a parameter is passed to the subroutine, use the information passed, not the info in the data section of the main program
8. Show your work and how you reach the answer, so that you may get partial credit. The procedure itself carries marks also, not only the last answer!
9. Study the subjects as if you are going to explain them to someone else (which you will: to the examiner, in your final exam!). In other words, be able to show, explain, do a program, analyze, modify, etc.
10. Don’t be intimidated by the long questions. The long question is usually easy to solve. It may just present a new practical idea that implements the technique you have studied.
11. Make sure you do every thing asked in the question. Not less, not more.
12. Your own tips, earned the hard way, here !
