    Click here for the Questions

    After reading each chapter, send me an email with your answers to each of the five questions. Each answer will be graded as one point, there will be no partial credit. For computational problems, just send an answer, you do not need to justify your work. I will reply with a list of the questions you got credit for. Observe the following to ensure your answers are received properly and graded.

    Make your subject line include: Chapter X, where X is the number of the chapter. Send your answers to bryans(at)ups(dot)edu address.

    Put your full name as the first line of the body of your message.

    Answer the questions in order, beginning each with the problem number.

    Try to send your answers as straight ASCII text, no HTML if you can help it. Definitely do not send your responses as an attachment. TeX syntax is fine for simple expressions.

    Answers are due at 5:00 AM on the day we begin discussing each new chapter. They will not be accepted late under any circumstances.

    I plan to reply that day, or within 24 hours at the latest.


    Writing and Studying Tips

  • How to Study An exceptionally good study guide from William Rapaport.

  • Examination Archive

    You will need a PDF viewer to read the files posted here. This is because of the difficulty of accurately rendering mathematical notation on a web page. Luckily, all you need do is install the free program Acrobat Reader. Just visit the Adobe website to obtain a copy (all major platforms are supported).

    Keep in mind that these exams are all based on a different textbook (Strauss Bradley and Smith).

  • Exam 1: Fall 2001, Fall 2006 , Fall 2007 (PDF), Fall 2010
  • Exam 2: Fall 2001, Fall 2006 , Fall 2007 (PDF), Fall 2010
  • Final: Fall 2006 (PDF), Fall 2010
