Top Secret review problems: first half; second half. |
We did most of these problems in the two Sunday night sessions. Almost all of the problems are from old Math 135 final exams. The problems are organized topically, and they cover the principal topics in the course. | 4/25/2005 5/1/2005 | ||||
| Official review problems for the final exam | Here
are the official review problems for the final exam, but only for the
segment of the course since the second exam. Short
answers to these problems are available.
Students should look at past collections of review problems and past exams distributed this semester. | 4/25/2005 | ||||
| Official formula sheet for the final exam | A copy of this sheet will be included with the exam. Students
should familiarize themselves with it. Note that students who need
to consult the formula sheet extensively during the exam usually do
not know the material very well and tend to do poorly on exams. Also, students should bring with them a graphing calculator which cannot do symbolic manipulation. The general instructions for the course state:

| Spring 1999 second exam | The second exam given by this instructor in a spring 1999 version
of Math 135. The textbook was different, and so was the order of the
topics. All problems on this exam would be appropriate in the current
version of the course, but some topics, such as l'Hopital's rule, were
not covered in the previous version of the course.
Detailed answers are available. Note Problems 5c and 6 from the first exam for spring 1999 would now be appropriate for examination in this course. | 3/29/2005 | ||||
| Fall 1998 second exam | The second exam given by this instructor in a fall 1999 version
of Math 135. The textbook was different, and so was the order of the
topics. All problems on this exam would be appropriate in the current
version of the course, but some topics, such as l'Hopital's rule, were
not covered in the previous version of the course.
Detailed answers are available. I think this exam was difficult and long. Note Problems 5c and 6 from the first exam for fall 1998 would now be appropriate for examination in this course. | 3/29/2005 | ||||

of Math 135. The textbook was different, and so was the order of the

for this course.

| Fall 1998 first exam | The first exam given by this instructor in a fall 1998 version

Here is a link to material from the previous semester (fall 2004). The current instructor taught Math 135 several times in the past, most recently in the spring 1999 semester. Please realize that the textbook was different and the syllabus was somewhat different. With those cautions, here are links to some previous Math 135 course pages, each of which has links in turn to exams with answers, etc.:
