***Suggested Problems to Look at Before Last Exam (***Don't Turn in!)

Section 8.3: 2, 3, 4
Section 8.4: 3, 8, 18

***Last test on 8/9 covers Chapts 7 and 8 (what was covered in class.)

***You may bring a standard sized notebook page with any notes on both sides
to look at during test3.

***There is no final exam during the final exam period.

***If you have questions or other problems relating to homework or quizes, you
should talk to your TA before the last week of classes. 
(By the last week of classes they will have given me the final 
homework and quiz averages, and I won't want to make any changes after that
time.) I will be out town the week of 8/13, and I probably won't return 
till classes begin for the Fall term. If you need to see me it will likely have 
to be during my office hours after the term begins. I may not be able to read 
or answer email while I am away.

***Test grades will be available from egradebook on utdirect.utexas.edu.***
Test 1 was scaled by adding 6 points to the raw percent score. (Raw avg was about 80, scaled avg about 86. I added 6 because that was about 1 question's worth.)
Test 2 was scaled by adding 6 points to the raw score. (Raw avg was about 74, scaled avg about 80.)
Test 3 was scaled by adding 15 points to the raw score. (Raw avg was about 65, scaled avg about 80.)
