A Newspaper Report to read after the exams Despite economy, experts still advise college students to major in what interests them Wed July 15, 2009 Test#3 4 questions each from Regression, Integration, ODE Fri July 17, 2009 Final Exam Final exam is a 32-question multiple-choice cumulative/comprehensive examination that lasts 2 hours. Each question has four choices. Four questions are asked from each of the eight topics. The final examination is NOT in the regular classroom. Check your email that I sent about this or see the online syllabus. To get ready for the exam, this is my advice. Go thru in sequence 1) the three tests 2) MC questions at the end of the chapters 3) clicker quizzes 4) sample quizzes and 5) problem sets in the book.
The
final exam for EML3041 is scheduled for Friday July 17th,
10:30AM-12:30PM (as given in the syllabus). The location of the
final exam will be
BEH103 (ample
seats and absence of claustrophobia). Arrive at 10:15AM for the
final exam for instructions, etc. Mark your
calendars with this info on your planners/cellphones. |
