Web resources

There are lots of webpages devoted to calculus, but they are not always correct. Some UNL instructors have posted materials, including old tests, and I've listed one here.

A comprehensive list of calculus resources
Mohammad Rammaha's home page (the calculus stuff is halfway down the page)
John Orr's Calculus page.

I will add web pages here, as I find them. Feel free to email suggestions to me.

I've also listed some advice on How to Lower Your Grade at the bottom of the webpage.

Final Exam

The Final Exam is on Tuesday, May 1, from 6 to 8 pm. You are expected to arrange your personal schedule so that you can write the exam at the designated time. The room you take the exam in depends on your recitation section and will be announced in class and posted here during the last week of classes.

Gateway Exam

You can take practice versions of the gateway exam.

The paper gateway exam was given on February 8th. The paper gateway exams are now available: 10:30 class questions, 12:30 class questions, and 10:30 class answers, 12:30 class answers.

Term Exams

Term Exam 1 was held on Wednesday, February 14, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. The answer key to the test is available. There is an old test, which does not cover exactly the same material as we've done, but gives some indication of the kind of questions I'll ask.
Term Exam 2 was held on Wednesday, March 21, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. The answer key to the test is available. There is a review sheet, and there are complete solutions to this review sheet. Please don't look at the solutions until making a serious attempt at the questions.
Term Exam 3 will be held on Wednesday, April 18, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. The answer key to the test is available. There is a review sheet, but it does not have answers available. Here are some of the answers: 1a) r=3 cos(theta), 1b) x^2+y^2+4y=0 or x^2+(y-2)^2=4, 3b) 4pi/3, 4b) 2pi, 9a) (2,1,8), 9b) 3/sqrt(15), 9c)9/5j+18/5k, 9d) 6sqrt(6) 9e) 7x+2y-z=8

You should arrange your schedule so that you can take these exams at the designated times. If this is not possible for some reason, you should let me know about the scheduling conflict as soon as possible. Room assignments will be announced in class and posted here.

To prepare for exams, you are encouraged to

  1. prepare a summary of the material, with definitions, theorems, formulas, and methods,
  2. review the previous quizzes and collected homework, and
  3. Then review the daily homework. If you had trouble with a daily homework problem, you might want to look at other similar problems in the textbook.

How to Lower Your Grade

I trust that, as a university student, you can figure out my real intent here.

There are several things that will dramatically lower your grade. Doing one or two these things won't guarantee that you'll fail but it will increase the chances a lot. Doing several will almost certainly result in a D or an F, no matter how prepared you are for this course.

Don't come to class. If you do come, don't ask questions or take notes.
Don't do the homework. If you do the homework, do it with the solution manual open in front of you.
Don't come to the recitation section. If you do come, don't ask questions or take notes.
Don't study or review old material, except just before the tests.
When you get tests, homework, quizzes back, don't look at the solutions to see how to do the questions you missed.
Don't make a serious effort to pass the gateway exam or leave it until the last few days before deadline.
