There will be a 5 point penalty for taking the exam in the wrong place.

Students ask various questions about the exam. I usually decline to answer
questions about whether
certain items will be on the exam. One thing that's fair to ask, I think,
is how much of the
physics will be tested on the exam. There will be no questions on the physics
on Exam 2.
I will hold review sessions in the lecture room during our class time, to
answer questions
about the material of those five weeks.
The review session for the 11
o'clock lecture will begin at
11:10.

In 1997, I was talking to a student who was a Student Council representative
on the
Curriculum Committee of the School of Arts and Sciences. As a biology major,
he had taken
110.107 (Calculus II for Bio Sci), and he told me that he used my
110.109 (Calculus II for Phys Sci)
exams to study for the
exams in
his course.
He told me something like, "You have a reputation for giving hard exams.
However,
I disagree; the exams are straightforward if you know what you're doing."
That is exactly how my exams are intended. It doesn't take great inspiration
to solve the problems. It only requires reasonable command of the material.
Just answer the questions that are asked. It may help to follow the instructions.

You are strongly advised to work out new problems to prepare for the
exam. Going over the
old assigned problems may help, but you will be asked to do mostly new ones
on
the exam.
Overall,
the aim is to learn methods, not problem types.
Also, keep in mind that nobody will be telling you which chapter each
exam problem comes from.
Here is the exam I gave last year; this year's will be different. Click here.
