Before the Midterm ________________________________________ Topics. The exam will cover all the topics through section
3.4 (included). ________________________________________ Review for Midterm 1. PDF file with the review. ________________________________________ Preparing. Review your graded homework and quizzes. Look
through your lecture notes. (Examples in the book and solution keys for the
homework might also be useful). ________________________________________ Help. If you are not confident enough about a particular
type of problems then ask in class, during Tuesdays’ sections, during office
hours or at MRC. Here is a list
of additional office hours: 1. Tuesday (October 12th),
1pm-2pm
in my office (Kassar 219), 2. Tuesday (October 12th), 2pm-3:30pm
by S.Molcho (Kassar 012), 3. Wednesday (October 13th),
12-1pm
in my office (Kassar 219), 4. Wednesday (October 13th),
2pm-3pm
in my office (Kassar 219). ________________________________________ Missing the exam. If on some reason you can’t make it to the exam (due
to health issues etc.) then please e-mail me well before the midterm. The
earlier you notify me the more chances the issue could be resolved. ________________________________________ Additional time on the exam. This refers only to the students who have
documentation from the DSS
(Disability Support Services) that grants them additional time on the exam.
You will need to start writing the midterm earlier than others; please,
e-mail me before the midterm and I will set up a time and place when you can
come and start working on the midterm. ________________________________________ Coping with stress. The exam is scheduled at 7pm. So don’t cram after
6pm. It will only make your brain tired, and you won’t be able to concentrate
during the exam. Rather take a walk or eat something before the exam. |
During the Midterm ________________________________________ Place and time. The Midterm 1 will be held in McMillan Hall, Room
117 on Wednesday, October 13th from 7pm to 9pm. ________________________________________ Questions. If you
have a question about the problems in the midterm then raise your hand at any
time during the exam. Someone will come and help you. ________________________________________ No Calculators. No calculators are allowed during the exam. ________________________________________ No Notes. The exam is ‘closed book’, so no books, notes or
cheat-sheets are allowed during the exam. |
After the Midterm ________________________________________ Solution key. PDF file with the
solution key. ________________________________________ Grading. Graded midterms will be
returned in class on Friday, October 15. ________________________________________ Regrading. Please review your graded midterms in Friday’s
class, and if you have any question about grading or grader’s comments then
ask me right after the class. ________________________________________ Average grade for Midterm 1. 71 out of 100 for our section. |
