Note: More information will be added as the exam dates near

First Midterm Exam: Wed Sep 30

Topics covered are roughly Ch 5, Ch 6 and Sec 7.1-7.4 in the text, plus additional material we covered in lecture. This corresponds to HW 1 - 5.

Second Midterm Exam: Mon Nov 23

The second exam will cover all methods of integration we have covered (which range from Chapter 5 to Chapter 8), as well as the supplementary material on inverse functions and L'Hopital's rule in Chapter 7. Specifically, you be comfortable with the material in Sections 5.5 (substitution), 6.1-6.3 (Areas and volumes), all of Chapter 7 and all of Chapter 8, excluding 8.6 and 8.7.

I will assign review problems on the HW 11 sheet, and we will go over some of these Friday in class before the exam. If you want additional review material, look at the Review sections at the end of Chapters 7 and 8 in the text. It may also be helpful to review your old homework.

Final Exam: Wed Dec 16, 8-10am

The final exam will be cumulative. I expect there to be some True/False, you will probably need to state the Fundamental Theorem, and then do a bunch of indefinite integrals, as well as a couple definite and improper integrals. You may also be asked to approximate an integral by the Midpoint, Trapezoidal or Simpsons rule, and compute simple Riemann sums. You should be familiar with the following applications: position/velocity/acceleration, area, volume, arc length, surface area, and average values of functions.

See HW 13 for a suggested review. If you have any questions after the final day of class, you may come to office hours during finals week (we'll discuss times for office hours on Mon/Tue in class).
