- It will cover our work on statistics and probability
- There are 9 problems. Calculators may be used on problems #6-9 only
- Bring your own calculator. Loaners may not be available!
- Bring your own pencil and scratch paper. The proctor will not have these.
- Bring your own formula sheet. No notes on it. You may not share.
- You may not have enough time to do all the problems as thoroughly as you would like. Work strategically, doing the easy problems first. Pick the low cherries!
- Remember that if you get stuck on one part of a problem, you can often still succeed on following parts. Use the results given in "show that" problems to help you continue.
- You must stay in the exam room for the entire 90 minutes. Bring a journal or something to read in the event that you finish early.
- Arrive and be prepared to begin the exam 5 minutes before it is scheduled to begin. If you arrive 20 minutes or later after the scheduled time you will not be allowed to begin the test and will have to reschedule.
- No cell phones or electronic devices will be permitted. Use of a cell phone during the exam will result in an F.
- Use the bathroom before the test
