First Test

Mathematics 3B, Section 2

Our first midterm will be on Friday, February 3'rd, 9-9:50 in our usual class room Haines 39. It will cover everything we do up to that time: in class, in the homework, and in the book.

For the book, that means the following sections: 6.1, 6.2, 6.3.1, 6.3.2, 6.3.3, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3.
For the homework, it means all problems assigned up to (and including) February 1'st.

The midterm will consist of 4 problems, each one with parts (a), (b), (c). Each problem is worth 25 points (for a total number of 100 points).

Ground rules: Paper will be provided. Bring pencil and eraser. No calculators. Closed book (no note cards). Please bring your photo ID to the test.

The test problems will be mostly like the homework. ("Mostly" means mostly, and "like" means that I think similar methods are used.) Answers should be supported by the work shown.

I will have extra office hours Thursday Feb. 2'nd from 8-10. Also, the Wed. Feb. 1'st lecture will be used entirely to solving problems.
