    • Collected on Monday
Next week: 
  • IN CLASS: Exam Review
    •  Begin going through your notes/assignments from Semester 1 and use that information to complete the exam review
    • The exam review will potentially count as points for your exam
      • If there is a curve on the final, you will receive the curve if you have a completed Exam Review.  This means that all tables are completed and all problems are done with correct work shown.  Just listing the answers is not sufficient to earn the curve.
    • Cheat Sheet
      • You will be given a half sheet of paper.  You may write anything you want on that half sheet.  You may write on both sides.  This will be the only assistance that you may use.  There will be no formulas/procedures given to you on the exam.
