The final exam is CUMULATIVE, that is, it covers all the material from the first day of class onwards. Approximately 15-20% will cover material from Chapter 11. This is Sections 11.1, 11.2, 11.4 and 11.5. You should go over homework problems as well as your class notes. Many of the problems and questions we discuss in class are excellent examples of test questions.

I have listed some sample problems from the Chapter 11 Review and Check Your Understanding sections below. For review questions from other chapters, see the three previous exam review sheets. For Ch. 6, 7.1 - 7.4, see Exam 1 . For Sections 7.5 - 7.8, 8.1 - 8.4, 8.7 and 8.8, see Exam 2 . For Chs. 9 and 10, see Exam 3 . It is also a good idea to go over your previous exams (solutions available from the course webpage.) The exam will be designed to take two hours although you will have the full 3 hours.

Click here for some practice questions (PDF file) for the exam. You should ignore questions 7, 13 and 18b as these test material we did not cover. Solutions are available here (PDF file).

Note: You will be allowed one "cheat sheet" 8.5 x 11 piece of paper, front and back, full of whatever formulas, graphs, etc. you wish. You will be given a scientific calculator for the exam which does NOT have graphing capabilities so be prepared to answer questions without your personal calculator or computer. The only numerical computations required will be the kind a scientific calculator can perform.

Exam Review: We will review for the exam Thursday, May 11, 12:30 - 2:00 pm in Swords 359. Please come prepared with specific questions.
