Final Exam

Mathematics 115A, Section 1

The final exam covers everything from the first day to the last day.   That is, it covers the material for the first midterm, the material for the second midterm, and the recent material from Sections 6.1-6.2 and the part of Section 6.4 summarized by the writeup on the spectral theorem.   (Section 6.1 includes the Cauchy-Schwartz inequality.)   For the homework, it covers Problem Sets I-VIII (i.e., all of them); solutions are posted.

The ground rules: closed book; no calculators; paper is provided.

During exam week, I will hold my usual office hours on Monday, June 9, 2:00-3:30.   And then Ethan Brown will have office hours 3:30-5 that afternoon.   And questions can always be posted to our "virtual office hours" website.)

The final exam can include any of the following:

• new problems, in the style of midterm problems
• old problems repeated from a midterm, possibly with changes
• old problems repeated from the homework, possibly with changes
• problems that involve stating definitions
• problems that involve giving an example
• other problems

We have posted a third list of theorems with names.   And here is a third list of useful methods we have used.   (In both cases, the three lists have been combined; the integrated lists are available from this link.)

Exam grades are posted on my.ucla.
Maximum possible = 184.
Mean = 120.3 (65.4%).
Median = 129 (70.1%).
