This reference sheet will be given to you when you take the final.

Important note about the final:

The final covers the following chapters of Savitch 2nd edition
Chapters 6-9, 12-14, Chapter 10, only the section 10.1 on Vectors

Contrary to what you may have heard, the final exam will NOT be all multiple choice. There definitely will be some self test questions in addition to the multiple choice questions.

Review session! Saturday June 9, 6 PM at CSB 004

End of quarter proctor hours:
Regular proctor hours end on Friday June 8. There will be a proctor on duty in the lab on Saturday June 9 from 10:30-12:30. All deadlines are over by then, but this will give you a chance to get a late interview for the last assignment in case you miss the regular deadline. Try for the regular deadline. Remember that one day late means you lose an extra 2 points and two days late means you lose 3 points. There will be no postponement of deadlines beyond what it says in the current description of the last assignment (assignment 7).

You must have one of the following picture IDs in order to take the final:
1. UCSD picture ID
2. California driver's license picture ID
3. Other picture ID that has been approved by the instructor
before the final. This approval must be done in person, not by e-mail.

Adam has created a study guide for the upcoming midterm.

Here is also a sample final exam. Since the sample midterm and sample final are for a course that covered topics in a different order from this class, you may want to look at the final as well as the midterm for sample questions. Look for the ones on the material we covered.
