You will take three midterms throughout the semester. They will cover material up to the time of the test. My exams are designed to see if you learned concepts and problem solving strategies and whether you can work with them, sometimes in new and different ways. Don't try to memorize formulas and specific problems. Exams also cover what you learn in the labs.
All exams are open book, open notes.
The final will be comprehensive with greater emphasis on the most recent material. Finally, the lab stockroom will keep a notebook of my handouts that you may check out and copy.
