Midterm Exam 2

• Date: Friday Oct 30th
• Place and Time: In class, at the normal time
• Format: 35 Multiple Choice questions
• Bring:
  • Yourself, well-rested and well-studied
  • You may also bring 1 piece of regular, 8.5"× 11" paper with notes written on it.  You may write or print whatever notes or diagrams you like on (both sides of) the paper.  It is a very good idea to write your own sheet, as the exercise of deciding what is important, organizing it, and writing it down, is a good way to study.
• Topics: From Lecture 12 to Lecture 22. Lecture, homeworks, and class discussions are included. My goal is to test for understanding of the concepts we have discussed, and how they fit together.
• Study tips: We have covered a lot of material in a short time, so here are some tips on how to approach your studies for the exam.
  • As noted above, lecture, homeworks, and class discussions can be included.
• Last Semester's Exam: This is a new course, so no old exam is available.
• Review Questions: Some review slides for the Exam.
