Math 308 Exam Archive

Some of you have asked for an archive of old exams for practice. Here is a sampling. The best way to study for an exam is to do old exams. I recommend that you print off one of the exams below and try to take it like a test, in 50 minutes. When time is up, check your answers against the solutions. Then -- and this part is crucial -- learn how to do the problems you missed. Come talk to me if you're confused about any of the solutions.

Note that one of the instructors below gave two midterms. Your midterm exam will cover more than his Midterm 1 but less than his Midterm 2. If it's not clear which of the Midterm 2 questions you are able to do at this point in the course, just ask me.

You can find a few more tests in the exam archive of Prof. Ralph Greenberg.
