I JUST updated all pages of study guide for Test 3:
--Used bold print for focus on specific topics and images.
--Added specific pages to read/review in text.
I did not add review Qs for Ch 20-22. Instead, focus on items indicated. They are few in number and very specific.
If you have already printed these pages, you will need to print the updates so you have complete and current info.
