- Three exams —two midterms and one final— form the foundation
of each student's grade in 116.
- Students are allowed to bring a 3" x 5" notecard with notes on both sides of the notecard.
- Graphing calculators are permitted (and often necessary) for use on exams.
- Many students use 116 exams from previous semesters to study for future
116 exams. Old exams are a useful guide to the format and style of future
exams, but they should not be treated as review sheets.
The sections tested on each exam vary slightly from semester to
semester, and each exam tests a different subset of the
curriculum. Even exam questions on the same material vary
substantially from semester to semester. As a final caveat, note that
the level of difficulty on different exams will vary some; while the
general objective is for the exams in different semesters to
require approximately the same effort, there are often significant
differences between them.
