The final exam is CUMULATIVE, that is, it covers all the material from the first
day of class onwards. Specifically, this is Sections 4.8, 5.1 - 5.10, 6.1, 6.2, 6.4 - 6.8, 7.1 - 7.4 and
8.1 - 8.3. You should go over homework problems, class handouts, the midterm exams, quizzes and your class notes.
Many of the problems and questions we discuss in class are excellent examples of test questions.

The solutions to your WebAssign problems on any homework assignment
can be seen by clicking "View Key" near the top of each assignment. You can also do practice problems on
WebAssign using the Exam 1, Exam 2 and Exam 3 review problems previously posted.
For other review questions, see the previous exam review sheets:
Exam 1,
Exam 2,
Exam 3.
Note that some sections are poorly covered by the problems in the Chapter Review Exercises.
The Concept-Check at the end of each chapter (before the exercises) is also a
source for good questions.
The exam will be designed to take two hours (twice the length
of a midterm) although you will have the full 2.5 hours to complete the exam.
Important 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 also be allowed a
scientific calculator for the exam which does NOT have graphing
capabilities. Please bring your own ``certified'' calculator to the exam.
