    • BSB 136, if lastname starts with I to R
    • BSB 138, if lastname starts with S to Z

What will be covered in the midterm?'

The midterm will cover all material in the course, up to, and including 03 February 2014.

Answering questions in the midterm

  • You may bring in any printed materials to the midterm; any textbooks, any papers, etc.
  • You may use any calculator during the midterm.
  • You may answer the questions in any order in the answer booklet.
  • Time saving tip: never repeat the question back in your answer.
  • If anything seems unclear, or information appears to be incomplete, please make a reasonable assumption and continue with the question.

How to prepare for the midterm

  • Understand the concepts being learned. My courses are never about finding the right equation, plugging values in and solving.
  • Read the questions carefully: they are usually worded precisely. The biggest point where students loose marks is to answer only one part of the question.
