My tip: Study harder, these are quite simple. Just opening the text once you should be able to memorize most of this.

Well can you just take the 5 minutes to help me please. Trust me, I am not just being lazy. Our teacher is horrible. We have had to teach ourselves almost the entire year. It was no problem until now with the computer stuff. My grade is dropping because I do not understand it at all. Our book is long and confusing and I can't find anything on the internet.

Please help:(:(

I was at a job fair for a computer hardware store, I was applying for
sales position. They gave us a quiz on the back of the application to fill out.
I didn't know most of the answers, but since it didn't say I have to fill it out
alone, I asked the other job applicants to help me with the answers. I ran
into a person that was applying to be system builder, and he knew
everything about computers. I asked him the questions, and he schooled
me on all of them. He was very informative.

Anyway, don't ever be afraid to ask. Every method of obtaining
information is valid.

Let me help you what I can:
