LAST   TWO  WEEKS  OF   COURSE
On  Monday , Wednesday ,  4/18 & 4/20 ,  we will finish the material for the course .
On Friday  , 4/22 ,   there will be no class .
Due to  the  Passover Holiday  I will not  be here on  the final week of the course .
The classes will be covered by    Brian and Tim   , who've been running the Tuesday subsections .
Those classes  will  be a   review of  material  that  could  appear on the Final  Exam .

I will be back on reading week  and will meet with anyone wishing to come  on   Monday , Tuesday &, Wednesday ,
5/2 - 5/4  ,    from   2 - 3  PM ,  in our regular classroom  . They  will be office hours  held  with plenty of room .   

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FINAL  EXAM( 25  multiple choice problems )
I.  Evaluating  integrals :  substitution , integration by parts , partial fractions , trigonometric substitution ,
improper integrals   and  Simpson's rule  .
    II.  Applications of integrals  :    area between curves , volume of a solid ( slicing method or cross-sections ) ,
length of curve , work  ( spring of lifting problems ) , probability ( only exponential density ) .
III.   Differential  equations  :    solving initial value exponential  equations , exponential growth & decay  ,
logistic  model  .
  IV .  Sums of  series  (  no problems   concerning  convergence or divergence )                                                
                                             V.  Taylor  and  Maclaurin   Series  (  8 out of 25 of the exam questions will come from this section ) .                                                                                                                
                           
  Practice Final   :  You should use  the  Final Exam  from  Fall  2002   as  your practice final  , much of our exam will be the same .
In the practice final  ignore  problems  1 , 2  , 6 , 14  and  16 .  That  exam is missing a few of the topics mentioned above , such as
Simpson's rule  , spring or lifting work problems . You can look those up on our previous exam  or  Webwork problems .

2. Grading Information

There will be three evening exams during the semester, E1 , E2 , E3.

There will also be a final,  F .

Exam Date Location Time Solutions
E1 February  10
Check here on exam day. 6:30-8:30PM Solutions
E2 March  16
Check here on exam day. 6:30-8:30PM Solutions
E3 April   14

GRADES  :   Each of the Exams  1-4  will count  16%  toward the final course grade  .  Similarly the grade of  the quizzes will  be  16%  .
                       The  WeBWorK  and the Lab will each be   10% .
                       
To be more precise ,   If   E1 , E2 , E3 , and F  are your four exam scores ,   QU  is your  quiz score ,  WeB  your WeBWorK score  & Lab  your
Lab Work  ,   then your  total   T    is given by  :

T = .16(E1 + E2 + E3 + F  + QU )   +  .10 WeB  +  .10 Lab

In cases where the lowest of the E1 - E3  is  less  than   F  , this lowest value will be replaced in the formula   by   F   .  Thus , the lowest in-semester
 exam  will be dropped out   in computing averages provided this lowest score isn"t   F  .

Then your   letter grade     for the course  will     not be lower     than it would be if it were based  on  the scale appearing in the following table .

Numerical Range Letter Grade
    90     to   100
A
   80    to    89.99   
B
   65   to    79.99
C
    50  to     64.99
D
       Below   50
F   or  NC


Missed Exams  :   If you are  unable to take one of   Exams  E1-E3 for legitimate reasons ( such as verified illness or serious family emergency )  you  will not be given   make-up   exam .  You first need to explain to me why you missed the exam and if everything is in  order you will get an   excused absence .  Your grade for the missed exam will be calculated by a   statistical proceedure which uses your scores on the other taken exams, including the Final  .  If the only exam you miss is the Final Exam , and for that receive an excused absence , then you  must take a  make-up  Final exam at the begining of the   Fall semester  2005  .  
     
Policy  for  taking exams :

You should always bring your Washington University Photo  ID  to exams ; proctors will check student ID's .
A standard-sized  3x5  index card will be permitted as a "cheat sheet" on the exams.  

A   calculator will   be  allowed   for   the  first  exam   ,     most   probably  they   will
       also  be  allowed  on  all the other  exams   .
 
Calculators have to be similar to TI-83, TI-83 Plus, TI-86 ,  but  NOT  any model that contains a  " Computer Algebra System (CAS) "  ( for example  TI-89 , TI-92, HP-48 and HP-49 are not allowed )  .

Just before each exam you can look up your exam room assignment on the web  (see above, "check here on exam day" ) . The room will probably not be your regular classroom, and it may change for each exam. You will be allowed to enter the exam room a few minutes before the starting time to locate your seat and personalized exam booklet which will have your name printed on it in large letters.


EXAM   RETURNS   :    There will be a short time after each exam is graded  when you can look at your graded exam  in the Math Office  ( Cupples  I  ,  room  100 )   if you feel there might have been some error in the grading  . After that the exams will be put out in a cabinet by the Math 132 bulletin board on the first floor of Cupples I , for you to pick up .  Once the exams are returned it will be  more difficult to check for  possible errors in grading .  

Resources  for  Help with  Math 132    :    Old Exams  and solutions are posted on the web as a study guide ( see above , "solutions" ) .  This comes from the Math Department page and it includes exams from the past  semesters , starting with   Spring 2000 .   Copies of some of these exams should also be available to view or copy at the Reserve Desk of Olin Library.
   
Calculus Study Group   :   Study groups are organized as needed  by   The Center for Advanced Learning    located  in   Conerstone  ( in Gregg Hall on the south 40 ) .  They are conducted by graduate and undergraduate math students . If you want to belong to such a study group you must make a commitment to   attend the group regularly   ( not just  " come when you feel like it"  ) .  For more information you can look on the website   cornerstone.wustl.edu      or   call them  at    935-5970  .
