Exam I will be held in the usual room at the usual time: 12:30-1:20 on Monday Sep. 17. It will start promptly at 12:30, so make sure you're on time. The test will cover sections 12.1 - 12.6 and 13.1.
The test will have four problems, possibly with several parts each. Calculators or other mechanical assistance are not needed and are not to be used.
The following topics are likely to be covered, though the exam is not limited to these topics:
You don't need to know about "work" or "torque" from sections 12.3 and 12.4. We also did not cover "direction angles" and "direction cosines" from section 12.3.
Advice: I recommend first reviewing homework problems from each section, perhaps doing a few odd-numbered ones and checking your answers. If you get one wrong, don't skip ahead, but tackle it right away and find out how it works. There may be a similar example worked out in the section, or among one of our graded problems, or you can try getting help. I also recommend the "Concept Check" questions at the end of each chapter as a way of finding out where to focus your efforts. There are extra problems there too that are worth trying out.
When it comes time for the test itself, relax and do the best you can. Because you have studied, you know which topics you know best, and can get those problems out of the way quickly. Then you'll have plenty of time to spend on the remaining ones.
Here is a past exam from Calc 3 which covers some of the same material. You might want to try it under realistic conditions (with a time limit, etc). The solutions are here.
