# Math 126 Sample Schedule

The following is a sample schedule for Math 126 from a typical Spring Quarter. It shows ten weeks with one holiday on a Monday. Exam I usually covers through Section 13.3 or 13.4 and Exam II through 15.4. The final exam is cumulative.

This schedule allows for one lecture-day of review for each midterm exam (assuming midterms are administered in quiz section) and two lecture-days for review for the final exam. During the Autumn Quarter, you may have an additional day of review for each exam; during the Winter Quarter, you will usually have only one day of review for each exam due to the extra Monday holiday.
