This week, the LA's will be doing sample tests for next Tuesday's test. Note: sample test made by them, not me, and I don't guarantee that they are perfectly representative of the actual test. Probably still worth your while, though.

Tuesday test will cover all material up to and including 3.5. Make sure you know the limit definition of the derivative, and the limit definition of continuity.

10/8 3.6# 1-13 odd, 17, 19, 21.

We took attendance of the students who attended LA sessions last week before the test. Thus I have to following data. Those who attended LA sessions averaged 77% on test, and those who didn't averaged 68%. Based on this evidence, attending the LA sessions improves your grade by 9%. Get the message?
