Final exam

There is a comprehensive final exam at the end of the term. (You'll arrange to take it some time from April 30 to May 6.) To speed up grading at the end of the term, the exam will be multiple choice, with no partial credit.

For the exam, you may use one sheet of notes that you wrote yourself; please take a scan or a picture of this (both sides) and submit it on Canvas. However, you may not use your book or anything else not written by you. You certainly should not talk to other people! Calculators are allowed, although you shouldn't really need one, but not communication devices (like cell phones).

The exam consists of questions similar in style and content to those in the practice final exam on MyLab.

The final exam will be proctored. In the face-to-face class, you can take it on May 4 Tuesday, in our normal classroom at the normal time but lasting until 2:40 PM. If you have access to a computer with a webcam, then you can schedule a time with me to take the exam in a Zoom meeting. If you're near Lincoln, then we can schedule a time for you to take the exam in person. If none of these will work for you, then contact me as soon as possible to make alternate arrangements.
