  • Grade scales for 5th period and 6th period sections. (Updated periodically, these pages will usually be current through most recent exam, and will not exist till after the first exam. The midterms, and their grading scales, will be the same for both sections; since the sections meet consecutively, information on exam content cannot be passed effectively from students who have just taken the exam in one section to students about to take it in the other. The final exams will be given on different days, so those exams will differ from each other, and therefore their grading scales may differ as well.)

    Prerequisites for this course

    MAC 2312 or equivalent. You will need a good working knowledge of Calculus 1 and 2. In particular, you will be expected to know integration techniques; the chain rule; partial fractions; and the algebra, calculus, and general properties of sines, cosines, and exponentials. If you are weak in any of these areas, or it's been a while since you took calculus, you will need to spend extra time reviewing or relearning that material.

    Knowledge of partial derivatives (usually covered in third-semester calculus) is not a prerequisite but would be helpful.
