November 20: Here are a few resources for next week's exam:
    • This list of topics.
    • The old exam archive.
    • This forum post of old exam problems by chapter.
    • The DFEPs.
    • Next Monday's review session. I'm holding one from 3 PM to 5 PM in Bagley 154.

October 27: Here are the solutions to today's midterm. Note that there were multiple versions, so your actual answers might be different from these. (Sorry about the missing 'A's in the PDF. Apple's iOS 9 update appears to have broken its PDF compiler.)

October 21: Hey, there's a midterm next week! Some things you should do to study:
    • See this list of topics.
    • Practice old exams here.
    • See this forum post for a list of old exam problems sorted by chapter.
    • Practice the DFEPs.
    • Go to review sessions. I'm holding one on Monday (Oct. 26th) afternoon, from 3 PM to 5 PM in Bagley 154 (our usual classroom). CLUE is holding another review session on Monday evening, and you should get an email soon with some details.

October 2: Still trying to get into Math 124, but want to get started on the homework? Here are PDFs of the first four assigments. Note that when you actually register for the class, your versions of the problems will be slightly different on WebAssign. Still, this is a decent way to get started.
    Assignment #1 (due 10/8)
    Assignment #2 (due 10/8)
    Assignment #3 (due 10/13)
    Assignment #4 (due 10/13)

September 30: Hey, welcome to Math 124. You should get yourself acquainted with the class discussion forum, WebAssign, Google Drive, and the Math 124 resource page, all of which are linked on the right.

Also, you'll be completing the first worksheet in quiz section tomorrow (October 1st), so print it out and bring it with you.
