Directions for Student:
- Completely document your work.
- Numerical answers should be correct to 3 significant
figures. You may round off given numerical information to a precision consistent
with this standard.
- Undocumented and unjustified answers may be counted
wrong, and in the case of two-choice or limited-choice answers (e.g., true-false or
yes-no) will be counted wrong. Undocumented and unjustified answers, if wrong, never get
partial credit. So show your work and explain your reasoning.
- Due to a scanner malfunction and other errors some
test items may be hard to read, incomplete or even illegible. If this is judged by
the instructor to be the case you will not be penalized for these items, but if you
complete them and if they help your grade they will be counted. Therefore it is to
your advantage to attempt to complete them, if necessary sensibly filling in any
questionable parts.
- Please write on one side of paper only, and staple
test pages together.
