To prepare for the final exam, I recommend working a bunch of problems from my old 300 finals. Here are some comments about each of them.
- Winter 2015: All problems are worth doing.
- Autumn 2014: All problems are worth doing.
- Winter 2014: All problems are worth doing.
- Spring 2013, B final: You should skip problem 2(b), but all other problems are worth doing.
- Spring 2013, C final: All problems are worth doing.
- Winter 2013: All problems except number 7 are worth doing.
- Spring 2012: All problems except number 6 are worth doing.

Here are a bunch of practice problems to work before the second midterm exam. Solutions will be posted later, perhaps Sunday or Monday. We'll talk about these problems on Monday, so the best thing is to at least try all of them before Monday.

A note about studying for the midterm: don't use the exam archive! Feel free to look through the exams, but the course topics have changed, so many, many problems on exams in the archive are not ones you need to be concerned with. Instead, review your homework and the study problem posted below. I'll post solutions to the study problems soon.

Welcome to Math 300 C, Spring Quarter 2015.
The course discussion board is availble (link at right). Please take advantage of it to ask questions about homework problems or course topics. You might also use it as a way to arrange study groups. I will get immediate emails when posts are added to the board, so this is as good a way to contact me as email, but allows everyone to see my response.
For those students looking for an add code, I do not overload my courses. I will have a list you can sign in class. If there are openings, some student(s) from the list will be allowed to add. As long as you wish to add the course, you should attend every day. Wednesday of the second week of class will be the last day that I will allow adds to the course.
Be sure to read the Homework Guidelines pdf before you start thinking about writing up the first homework assignment.
The first homework assignment will be posted soon.
In weeks when homework is due, we will meet on Thursdays from 5:30 to about 7:30 PM in PDL C-401 to discuss the homework. This is optional, but highly encouraged, and you may come for all or part of the time.
