Midterm 1: W 10/4. The exam will cover HWs 1-12. I suggest you spend at least one hour per day reviewing, starting at least one week before the exam. My exam questions are like homework problems, sometimes exact copies, but usually a little modified. (Except that on the final exam I sometimes include one problem that's not quite like homework problems.) So the best way to review for the exam is to redo homework problems, especially those that you couldn't do on your own and had to get help (or look at the solutions) for them. Make sure you can do the problems without looking at your notes or the book.
Reminder: For each HW assignment, you should spend about one hour patiently reading the section and trying to really figure out all the details; and about two hours or more working patiently on the problems.
