Test Tomorrow

Today in human geo we went over the population and settlement powerpoint and the CIA World Facebook. I feel more confident after we reviewed more of the topics and questions that are going to be on the test tomorrow. Mr. Schick also told us some question that are going to be on the quiz tomorrow. One of the questions was to name two push forces and two pull forces and give an example with a country. Some other questions that will be on the test tomorrow are the numbers/information from the CIA World Factbook and about the net immigration rate.  I am glad that a couple days ago, Mr. Schick gave us an assignment where we had to find information of the CIA World Factbook because now I know how do find the information that I will need for tomorrow's test. As we reviewed our notes and the power point I feel very confident about the test tomorrow, a lot more confidant than yesterday.
