Patrick is a GSI for Math 53, Dr. Vaughan Jones' lecture, Sections 107 and 109.


Final Preparations

The final exam will be, apparently, in our usual room after all, from 5-8 PM this Saturday. I, um, recommend you attend it.

As for preparations, my review session will take place at 2 PM Wednesday (May 9) in 247 Cory Hall.

Tegan Cheslack-Postava will have one at 1 PM on Thursday, in 9 Evans. (This review has been cancelled.)
Gary Sivek will have one at 3 PM on Thursday, in 3 Evans.
Andrew Marks will have one Wednesday at 1 in 9 Evans, but then you'd be going to two consecutive reviews. Andre Kornell will have one at 3 in 70 Evans.

Office Hours This Week (in Evans 1068):
Tuesday 3-4, Friday 3:30-5. Note that I won't have office hours on Thursday.

Dr. Jones has suggested Dr. Hutchings' final from Fall 2003 as a practice final. Here is a copy.

UPDATE: Andrew Marks has written solutions, which can be found here.

Midterm 2 Preparations

The second midterm will be next Wednesday (April 18) in lecture, and will cover all material through 16.3.
My midterm review will be 5 PM, Monday (April 16), in 101 Wurster (the architecture building, IIRC).

Also, Gary Sivek will have an open review session on Tuesday (April 17) at 5:30 in 120 Latimer, and
Tegan Cheslack-Postava will have one on Monday at 6 in 3 Evans.

Dr. Jones has said that Hutchings' 2nd midterm from Fall 03 is good for preparation. Here is a copy of that midterm.
UPDATE: Andrew Marks has written solutions, which can be found here.
