Time and Place. Your final exam will be on Saturday, March  13, 2010, 5:00-8:00pm. The room where your class takes the final examination will be listed below after the 10th day of the quarter. Students who cannot take an examination for religious reasons should immediately petition to make alternative arrangements. Petition forms are available in the Mathematics Advising Office, C-36 Padelford. The petition has to be file by Friday, February 5. As a rule, other than for religious reasons no exceptions will be made to this examination time. If you are unable to take the final examination for reasons of health, you have to call the professor in advance, and you will have to provide a written medical excuse. If extraordinary circumstances of grave personal import preclude taking the final exam at the scheduled time, students who file petitions accompanied by the appropriate written documentation by the February 5 deadline may be granted permission to take a makeup final exam. Approval of such petitions is by no means automatic. Plans for sporting events, travel or work on exam day, etc. do not constitute extraordinary circumstances.

Length of Exam. The exam is designed so that it can be done in 2 hours. However, you will have 3 hours to complete it.

Working the final exam.
At the final exam, you will be given an exam packet which will have the questions on it. For written-answer problems, you will find sufficient space to write out a full and complete solution. If you find that you cannot complete a problem in the given space, then continue your work on the back of the page, or on the the back of the preceding page. If you continue your work elsewhere, make sure you tell the grader where it is. Answers with insufficient work shown will not get much credit. Show enough work on each problem for the grader to tell how you obtained your answer. This may also help you get some partial credit if your answer is incorrect or incomplete. You are responsible for making your solutions readable. Using a few words of English will help the grader understand your work. You should show enough work so that a grader can give you partial credit if your final answer is not complete.

Closed Book. The exam will be closed book. You are allowed to bring one 8.5 x 11 page of notes, both sides.

Calculators. Calculators will be allowed on the final.

Photo I.D. You may be asked for personal identification that has your photo on it. Whether or not you have a driver's license, such an I.D. can be obtained from the Department of Motor Vehicles. You should also bring your student I.D. to the exam.

The Exam Cover Sheet. Remember to put your name and student number on the cover sheet of your exam.
