Common Limitations or Challenges
This practice quiz is designed to *test* your knowledge, not *teach* it. It assumes you have already engaged with the course materials – lectures, readings, and discussions. It does not provide detailed explanations of concepts, nor does it offer comprehensive summaries of the course content. Think of it as a checkpoint, not a substitute for active learning. Access to the full quiz does not guarantee a specific score on graded assessments.
