If you're trying to just use the examples to do the webassigns then use those webassigns to take the test, that's probably not a great plan for success. I took the class last semester and found that if I did the on-line modules and practice problems there, then did the webassigns, I learned the material much better. If you refer back to a particular section to do a problem, note it. Take careful notes on how to work each webassign problem - and keep note of what you did that didn't work as well.
On the tests, I would go through and start out with the easiest questions to make sure I had time to do those. Next I would work on problems with the highest point value. I saved the hard-low-point-value questions for last. This allowed me to get at least all I thought I "deserved".
Make a point to do the webassigns well ahead of when they are due. Wertz is very good about answering questions via webassigns. Even if you get a question right, if you don't understand exactly why you did it that way versus another way, go ahead and ask. If at all possible, try to make the tutorial center office hours, or find a time that you can get up with him regularly. Even after a due date passes, go talk to him about questions you missed. Do the same with the tests so you'll be better prepared for the final.
