Final Exam  When: May 4th, Tuesday, 2:15 pm ~4:15

                ** Cumulative exam but weigh more on Chapter 8, 9 and 10.

                    However, basically we assume that you know Chapter 5 and 7.

                    When you have troubles with questions related Chap 5 or 7, then go back and review.

                    The policy about using calculator has been changed.

                    You may use a calculator during entire test but you have to show all details for full credits.

                    Not enough or wrong reasoning will not get full credits.

                    Only answer would receive zero credits.

                ** Study mainly focusing on Chapter 8, 9, and 10.

                    Some problems on final do require knowledge of techniques of integration from Chapter 7. 

                ** If you have any conflict with the schedule, you have to let me know at least a week in advance.

                ** Go to Calculus homepage (http://orion.math.iastate.edu/calculus/) for old exams.

                ** Besides old exams, here are list of good study problems.

                     1. Going through all class examples (usually the same as examples on text)

                     2. If you want more, then

                        Section 8 (pp. 447, Sample test) #1 ~ #37

                        Section 9 (pp. 505, Sample test) #1 ~ #51, #59

                        Section 10 (pp. 552, Sample test) #29 ~ #50

                        --Text has only answers for odd numbers. 

                        --If you want to check solutions, then stop by my office.

** Final grade will be informed via email as soon as possible. So far I am not planning any type of curve. However, if the final is very hard so that the calculator coordinator decides less than 60 percentage (ex, 55%) is enough to pass this course, I am willing to compromise with the department requirement.

 

What you should do now is DO NOT expect curve now and DO your best for the final. ^^

Mid-term

 

Mid-Term composed with two parts, one on techniques of integration (Chapter 7, No calculators)

 and one on applications (Chapter 5). Each part is weight equally.

Material to be covered --- Chapter 5 (Section 5.1 ~ 5.6) and Chapter 7. 

 **There could be slight changes after discussions about Mid-Term by all instructors. 

Good things to prepare ---

1. Old exams from  http://orion.math.iastate.edu/calculus/ (Departmental Cal. Homepage)

2. All quizzes, all homework assignments.

3. Review class notes (Try to solve all examples by your hands given during the class)

No formula sheet ---

The policy doesn’t allow you to have any formula sheet for a common exam.

Calculus students should remember basic integrals and basic trigonometry rules.

Also for applications of the integral, we expect you to understand “slice and approximate” and to derive all formulas.

This means formulas for application of the integrals will not be given either.
