The tests are multiple choice. No notes or calculators are allowed. To prepare these exams, students could go to the Calculus Homepage of these courses to download syllabus and old exams. Therefore, students are permitted to drop one unit of AP credit. To do this, come to the Math office DRL 4W1 and sign a petition before the end of the ADD period in September.
Computer literacy is an important part of a liberal or technical education.
All students in all Calculus classes numbered 130 and up use Maple, a powerful software package that does symbolic, graphical and numerical computations. Maple assists people with mathematical work in much the same way as word processors assist writers. No previous computer experience is required for students to take Calculus with Maple. An extensive support network is available in campus computer labs, in the residence hall Mathematics Centers and via electronic mail. For students who wish to run Maple on their own computers, Mac and DOS versions of the software will be available for purchase in the Computer Connection at a discounted price.
