Math 1071 Exam Info (Fall 2016)

A note on calculators: You are allowed to use a calculator on exam but this calculator must not be able to do symbolic calculus.  Models similar to an TI-83 or TI-84 are acceptable, but models like a TI-89 are not.  Calculators that are too powerful will be confiscated for the duration of the exam.

There will be three exams in total:

  • Exam 1 (Date TBA, worth 20% of your final grade)
  • Exam 2 (Date TBA, worth 20% of your final grade)
  • Final exam (cumulative and worth 30% of your final grade)

Exam 1 and Exam 2 will be held in the evening: either from 6pm-8pm or from 9pm-11pm.  In each case you made the selection when you signed up for the course; check your schedule for your time slot.
