To make the best use of sessions I recommend starting labs ahead of time so that you can come with questions.

The exam is designed mostly for an opportunity to review content so that the big picture will become clear. If you have done well on labs throughout the semester and felt good about material you should be OK on the exam. It is designed to be integrative, not onerous.
Expect questions like, which estimator is appropriate for a specific research domain? Or, explain the difference in the interpretation of b1 when X is continuous versus when X is a binary (treat=1, treatment=200mg caffeine) dummy variable.
heart_rate = b0 + b1(caffeine) + e
vs
heart_rate = b0 + b1(treat_dummy) + e
The exam focuses on questions that test your ability to apply core concepts to the specific context of the study.
