For exams, questions will be similar — but not identical — to the exercises in the textbook. The best way to prepare for exams is to do as many exercises as possible. Note that the point is not to learn solutions by heart, but to gain experience in finding them. Please note that it is important to attend the lecture and tutorial sections for which you are enrolled.
The midterm is scheduled Thursday October 25th from 7pm to 9pm. Seating assignments will be posted on OWL as soon as possible.
