  {\bf Tips for Studying for Exam II}
\end{center}

The exam is Thursday, November 11, 8:00-9:15 a.m.  It is designed 
to be done in an hour.  Make sure you know what room your exam is in.
Make sure your alarm is set correctly and working---if necessary, 
arrange for a friend to make sure you are up in time.



There will be a review session the evening of Wednesday, November 11,
in 102 DeBartolo  at 7:00 p.m.  This is your  chance to get  last minute
questions answered.

 The exam will cover sections 7.3, 7.4, 7.6 and 8.1-8.9.



  
Calculators will be allowed.  However, you must show all your work and
all important steps on each problem.  We have chosen the exam problems
carefully to test your knowledge and understanding of the topics we
have studied.  You will get very little credit or no credit for just
writing down an answer you find on your calculator.


  The ``Questions to Guide Your Review" at the end of each chapter
of Thomas and Finney do an excellent job of giving you a review
of what the basic concepts are.  

 A good strategy for practicing computation is to go back through
the homework problems and work problems similar to those assigned.
At the end of each chapter in Thomas and Finney, there are 
``Practice Exercises" and ``Additional Exercises--Theory, Examples." 
Unlike the problems in the sections, these problems come with fewer
clues as to how to proceed.  For example, in the ``Assorted
Integrations'' on page 608, it is left to you to decide what technique
of integration to use, as well as to carry out the integral.  
Similarly,  the problems on ``Convergent or Divergent Series'' on 
page 700 require you to decide what test to use. 
You may find the flow
chart on p.660 helpful.
 Begin by studying the
material, to make sure you have everything at your finger tips.  Then
work an assortment of the odd-numbered problems.          

We have covered lots of topics.    On an exam designed to take 
an hour, we cannot possibly ask you a question about each topic.
