If you are still not sure, please ask questions before the exam, either during scheduled office hours, by appointment or by e-mail.
NOTE: The accompanying list is tentative.  Near the end of class on Wednesday, you will find out the exact extent of the material to be covered on this exam.
This exam is the "final" exam, which means that it is a comprehensive examination. However, more of the material covered on this exam will focus upon the last 2 weeks since the 2nd exam. Certain points that may have been discussed during the previous 6 weeks may appear on this exam, since topics covered during the last several weeks have built upon concepts discussed earlier. You should refer back to the review sheets for the previous 2 exams.
You will be responsible for material through the last lecture.
