- Exam policy
- • The exam is cummulative.
- • You are allowed to bring a one-sided, regular size, hand-written sheet of paper with formulas to the exam. Making it is a good review for the exam; make sure that you also know how to apply everything that you put on the formula sheet.
- • Bring a non-graphing calculator to the exam if you have one. There will be extra TI-30 calculators available in the exam room.
- • You have three hours for the test, but the exam is designed to take only around two hours. Use any spare time to double check your answers.
To study for the final, review the practice midterms, insisting on the topics where you didn't do well on the past tests. When you think you understand a topic, make sure to test yourself by doing practice problems from the corresponding section in the textbook. You can use the practice problems from the midterm reviews above, or choose similar problems from the textbook. Here are solutions to the midterms: First midterm, Second midterm, Third midterm.
For Sec. 8.6 and 8.7, use Homework 11 as practice problems. Solutions are available on Moodle. In Sec. 8.7, we only covered the Taylor series formula, obtaining new Taylor series from old ones by substitution etc, and the two applications to computing limits and integrals.
