Doesn't really apply, both fortunately and unfortunately.
For English it's just pure vocab cards. You get about 15 lists over the course of the semester consisting of about 20 words and meanings that you have to memorize. There's one word per list on the final, plus five roots. There's also another final based on you knowledge of the English language in general, but that one isn't worth nearly as much, and it's much easier.
For math you get a whole page of notes of whatever you want for the 6 chapters covered in the semester that you can use during the final (you just can't have worked out examples). That tends to be easy, as all you really need to write down are equations.
Science is about the same. Except even easier.
So as you can see, the English one is an absolutely bitch if you're lazy and save all you're studying for the end of the semester. Which would be all right if my English grade wasn't border C+/B- range.
