Final exam
- The final exam will be formatted much like the midterm exam.
Review session: in our classroom, 5–6:45 PM on Friday (Mar 13) or 10–11:45 AM on Saturday (Mar 14). Bring your questions!
The review sessions focused mostly on going over materials, while example questions were touched upon briefly. Here is a short summary of some notable things discussed (and some information added after the review session).
My barebone summary (sheet 2)—you can bring two sheets of letter-size paper filled on both sides of each sheet.
Practice problems and some more. (Both these files are relevant for the exam.)

Midterm
- The midterm score distribution is shown on the left.
- The midterm exam is upon us. It will be held on Feb 12 in our classroom during our regular class schedule.
Here is 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 the last year’s midterm. However, note that in this year’s exams, I do not intend to have any multiple choice questions.
Here are some more problems to try.
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’ schedules and the room schedule. Here is my summary of the two review sessions.
