Lecture #19 - Midterm Review

The exam is closed book. You may bring in one sheet of notes, written with text as small as you like, on both sides if you wish. You may bring in and use a magnifing glass. You may not share notes with someone else during the exam. If you bring in more than one page I will take all but one from you - my choice which ones. The exam will start promptly at the beginning of the class period and end promptly at the end of the class period. If you come late you will not be given more time at the end. I strongly recommend you hand write your notes rather than copy parts of the class notes. Organizing them and writting them yourself will help you remember their contents.
