CPSC 203: Information about the midterm exam

Grades [Sorted by ID number]

Material that you should study

• The lecture material: the PowerPoint slides will provide you with an outline of the topics to be covered. However studying the information just listed on the slides won't be sufficient to do well on the final exam. You will also need to take notes in class and to study and understand those notes. If you have any questions then make sure that you ask me for help and clarification.
• The text books: they should be used as another source of material to help you understand the material as you prepare for the exam. I won't however directly examine you on material that is listed in the textbooks that I didn't cover in class.
• Lab exercises and the lab handouts: I won't be directly examining you on this material (unless it overlaps with the lecture material).
