Grades (link
in sidebar)
Covers
only material presented
in class through
Wednesday 1/23.
Multiple choice – YOU
must bring a standard
mark-sense sheet and
pencil or pen. If
you forget, the h-bar
(cafe across the PAB
plaza) sells them.
Questions are similar to
quiz questions: easy if
you have paid attention
in class, and reviewed
slides and your notes
Calculators OK, but no
books or notes or
laptops or
phones/pads/netbooks. You
do not need a fancy
calculator – simplest
kind is fine
You will have the full
class hour, although the
exam should not take
very long
Sample
questions were shown in class
Thursday 1/17
- see slides. Answers
in class Tuesday 1/22.
