2. Knowledge of the chiral and the vector multiplet in 4 dimensions
3. Knowledge of the non-renormalization theorems
4. Knowledge of the Witten index
5. Knowledge of the Nambu-Goto action
6. Knowledge of the Virasoro operators
7. Knowledge of the quantization of the open and close bosonic string theory
8. Knowledge of the basics aspects of superstring theory
