About the final exam
The final exam will be held on
Tuesday, December 6, 10:30am to 12:30pm in 316 Taft Hall (that is, the exam is in our usual lecture room).
There will be a total of eight questions on the final exam, and for full credit you will be asked to complete any five of them. The first two problems are posted in advance; see the section "handouts" above.
The average difficulty and topic selection for the final exam problems is based on the homework assigned in the course.
Homework
Unless otherwise specified, all problems are from the textbook. A specification like "7bcd" means "do parts b, c, and d of problem 7".
