Final Exam Information These slides and more detailed information will be posted on the webpage later…

General Information Date: Friday, April 24th* Time: Location: varies – refer to final exam timetable * as of March 31 st, 2015

General Information exam is out of 80 marks (roughly the length of two tests) exam questions include multiple choice, true or false, and "complete solution" questions style and level of difficulty will be similar to tests you may write in pencil (your exam is not returned to you)

Math 1LT3 Exam Review Session Date: Wednesday, April 22 nd Location: HH 302 Time: 2:30pm – 4:30pm

How to Study  Study class notes. All theory, and the most relevant examples are done in lectures. Make sure you can do all exercises that that were discussed in class.  Suggestion: Study in reverse order. Start with probability and statistics, then functions of several variables, and then differential equations.

How to Study  Re-do a selection of questions from the lecture notes (examples), assignments, and practice problems. Do not read solutions; instead, do questions yourself, and only when you get stuck, look at solutions.  Review your tests from this term. Make sure you can do all test questions without referring to notes or solutions (blank tests will be posted on the course website for you to practice). Also, look at your tests critically, understand things that you did not correctly, so that you do not repeat the same mistakes.

How to Study  Attend the review session. Bring your questions to the review session after you have completed most of your studying to fill in any gaps.  Use the math help centre (check online for exam hours) for additional help and/or use the 1LT3 Facebook group to ask/answer questions or organize study groups.
