Last summer's final

UPDATE: here are answers and sketched solutions to (only) the questions relevant for tomorrow's exam.

For your studying pleasure, here is last summer's final. I can't find my key, so I'll have to do all the problems quickly before I can post the answers ... but I will post them later this evening.

Other things this evening: grade updates (including fixing lab grades you've brought to my attention), and some hints for the exam.

Thanks. On a random note, some of us have been wondering, what is the tattoo on your right arm (the one you also use as a twitter avatar)? If you prefer it to remain a mystery, we'll understand.

I lived in a very odd floor of a very odd dorm at MIT as an undergrad (be warned, not all content at the link below is safe for work, friendly, or inoffensive):

It is a long story, but the tatoo on my right arm was our little demon mascot. Click on 'signs of a cult' on the link above.

I lived in this hallway, fwiw: http://web.mit.edu/florey/www/bemis-new.html

This is all probably a lot more than I should be explaining.

after speaking with Dr. Mazumdar, are the sections listed below the only ones we need to focus on for tomorrow's exam?

pleclair said...

Yep, he was in agreement, so those are the only sections to worry about.

I admire your resolve and dedication.

I wish I had a tattoo of something as impressive as the God of Donuts, Bagels, Roller Coasters, etc, but alas...
