This is your midterm exam. This exam is required to earn a quill for this class, and so to pass to the next term.
To pass this exam (and so to earn a quill) you have to complete all the mandatory questions, and score at least 18 points on 30 (trust me, it's not so difficult).

You will find also a not mandatory part that you can do if you want to earn 30 additional points.

Good luck :)

During this term we have known more about Greek, Roman, Russian and Japanese mythology. Choose the one you are more interested in, and find a myth or legend from that mythology, NOT MENTIONED IN THE CLASS AND NOT ALREADY REQUESTED IN THE EXTRA CREDITS.

Minimum of 300 words, but remember that more you will be precise and complete and more you will earn.

Please, no copy and paste from internet. If i will notice you will have only copy and paste from Internet, the work could also be the best in the world but it won’t give you full points.
