ReplyDeleteDear Dr. Triff:
ReplyDeleteThis is Regine from PHI 2604 Wednesday 6:30 - 9:00PM
Hope this note finds you well.
I have a concern about two questions that were on today's final .
Question # 2 Reliability of a test
and # 37 Inept Custodians these two questions are from previous chapters "excluded from the final review" . what will happen If I get them wrong?
there is an other question that i do not remember the number and I am asking myself if it not a typo " IMPLIED CONSENT"
Thanking you in advance for replying to this e-mail.
It has been a great semester and I've surely learned a lot from your good teaching.
Best regards,
REGINE D
