Copy down the notes on the types of thermochemistry questions.
Work on the sciPAD prelearning. Remember, you don't need to complete all the pages, just what you need to understand the material. If fact, it's worth looking at the No Brain Too Small Collated Atomic Trends Questions first because sciPAD has you doing more than you need to for the exam question. Remember, this is just an achieved point.
