  Syllabus

Announcement (03/03/08) : In order to clarify the policy about missed exams, quizzes, a specific paragraph was added on the syllabus (download file in the link above).

The paragraph is

Missed exams policy: Make-up exams will be given based on an official documented
medical, or religious excuse. It could be given also based on a very compelling reason.
In this case, a justification in writing needs to be presented to base the decision if the
make-up will be granted. Waking up late, missing the bus, and excuses of this sort in
general do not account for compelling reasons.

The same applies for make-up quizzes.

In order to be completely prepared for the exam, students should be comfortable also with problems in the previous HW and the examples worked out in class.
Students are also encouraged to come to office hours and discuss this list with the instructor and the T.As.

Ex: Section 3.4) 21,25,35,38,39,60,61,62

Remark:

Although the material is cumulative, the focus of the second midterm will be from section 3.3 (including) on. Clearly, this does not imply you should disregard the material that was studied for Midterm #1. It will be somehow indirectly connected with the material that will be covered in Midterm #2 and in this sense, will appear there.  As it was mentioned in class, students should be very confortable with material covered in HW #5,6,7,8,9.
