MATH 101, Winter 2013 — Integral Calculus with Applications to Physical Sciences and Engineering

INFORMATION ABOUT THE APRIL 2013 MATH 101 FINAL EXAM

Comments about this year’s final exam:

  1. Unless otherwise stated, all numerical answers should be simplified as much as possible.
  2. Questions 1, 2, and 3 are multiple-part short-answer questions. Full marks will be given for correct, simplified answers placed in the answer boxes. In questions 1 and 2, each part is worth 3 marks, and at most 1 mark will be awarded for an incorrect answer. In question 3, each part is worth 4 marks, and 1, 2, or 3 marks may be awarded for an incorrect answer. Work should be shown for part marks.
  3. Questions 4–12 are full-solution problems, for which all work must be shown.
  4. At least 2/3 of the questions on the final exam will be similar to the homework problems. The homework problems are a good guide for material students are responsible for.
  5. Students are responsible for all topics included in this year’s course outline. See here for a list of formulas you do not need to memorize.
  6. No calculators or formula sheets are allowed. Also, cell phones are not permitted.
  7. In applications problems, students are expected to be familiar with both the Metric and Imperial systems. Note in particular that in the Imperial system, pounds are a unit of force.
  8. The final exam will comprise 50% of students’ final course grades. The final exam will not generally be weighted higher for students who perform better on the final exam than they did during the term, although some allowance may be made for students who perform much better on the final exam than they did during the term.
