Grades [Sorted by ID number]

^{Exam instructions (they will be from actual exam so you should read them beforehand)}

• This is a closed book exam: No electronic devices (e.g., cell phones must be shut off and out of sight) or computational aids (e.g., any calculators, laptops, hand held computers, slide rulers, abaci) will be allowed.
• DO NOT START the exam until you are told to do so.
• For the multiple choice questions make sure that you select the best answer to each question on the computer bubble sheets using an HB pencil or darker.
• For the written questions write your answer in the space provided.
   

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.
• Tutorial material: I won't be directly examining you on this material (unless it overlaps with the lecture material or assignments)
