 * The midterm score distribution is shown on the left.

 * <<la(EX02.pdf, "The final exam")>> and <<la(EX02--solutions.pdf, "the solutions")>>.

 * The final exam will be formatted much like the midterm exam.

 * Review session: in our classroom, 5&ndash;6:45 PM on Friday (Mar 13) or 10&ndash;11:45 AM on Saturday (Mar 14). ''Bring your questions!''

   * The review sessions focused mostly on going over materials, while practice problems were touched upon very briefly. Here is a short summary of [[Final review session summary|some notable things discussed (and some information added after the review session)]] for practice problems.

 * <<la(EX02-Review.pdf, "My barebone summary (sheet 2)")>>&mdash;you can bring two sheets of letter-size paper filled on both sides of each sheet.

 * <<la(EX02--practice problems.pdf, "Practice problems")>> and <<ln("https://gweon.com/ph5b-15/Lecture+?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=L18--Activities.pdf", "some more")>>. (Both these files are relevant for the exam.)

 * The midterm score distribution is shown on the left.

 * <<la("EX01--w-Solutions.pdf", "The midterm with solutions")>>.

 * The midterm exam is upon us. It will be held on Feb 12 in our classroom during our regular class schedule.

 * Here is <<la(EX01-Review.pdf, "my barebone summary")>> of relevant materials.

   * To the midterm, you can bring one letter size paper filled with potentially useful formulae and facts (like those contained in my summary sheet).

   * '''You should also bring a simple calculator for the midterm (not a graphing calculator; a smart phone is not allowed, and neither is any internet connected device)'''.

 * As a practice for the midterm exam, I recommend that you try the following.

   * Try <<la(EX01-2014.pdf, "the last year&rsquo;s midterm")>>. However, note that in this year&rsquo;s exams, I do not intend to have any multiple choice questions.

   * Here are <<la(EX01--More Practice Problems.pdf, "some more problems")>> to try.

 For both these problem sets, if you come up with a nice and clean solution to any problem, you can present it on the forum, for potential extra credit.

 * There will be a review session next week (one of Mo,Tu,We), but I am not certain what time that will be. It depends on students&rsquo; schedules and the room schedule. [[summary of midterm review sessions|Here is my summary of the two review sessions]].
