The exams will consist of approximately 5 problems similar in style to the homework and quiz problems. A formula sheet will be prepared by the instructors for your use during the exam. Bring a calculator* and writing implements to all exams. In addition, bring your official university identification card to show upon request.
Prepare for exams following these suggestions:
Even if you can't fully solve a problem, show us what you know about it. Partial credit will be given for work that is neatly presented.
When you get the exam, scan the problems and work the easiest ones first. Monitor the time and do not spend too much time on any one problem. Some of the problems may have multiple parts; if you think you have a wrong answer for an early part, go with it for the later parts. Graders will attempt to avoid penalizing for propagation of errors.
* Calculators on communication-capable devices such as phones or PDAs are not permitted. Exam proctors have the right to reject any device they feel may compromise the integrity of the exam. Graphing and calculus-capable calculators are permitted, as long as they have no communication capability.
