Math 085: Review
Review for Test 1
Math 085 Academic Systems
Format
• The exam will be 6 pages long.
• It is a paper and pencil exam – it will not be on the computer.
• You will need to show your work.
• You will not be permitted to use a calculator for the exam.
• The exam will last for the full class time.
Basic Content.
• You are responsible for sections F2.1, F2.2, F2.3, and F2.4.
• In addition to the material covered in the class, you are responsible for all of the basic facts you have learned since kindergarten. These include the facts that George W. Bush is the President of the United States of America and that [pic].
Where You Should Be
• You should plan to finish your work on Academic Systems two days prior to the exam (or early on the day before the exam at the latest). You should plan to have your homework done by a decent hour on the day before the exam.
• After completing your homework, you should plan on spending 2 to 5 hours studying for this exam (more time is certainly appropriate when necessary).
• Additionally, I would find a few challenging problems in the book from each topic. Write these down and solve them with your book closed.
• Remember, the exam is closed book and closed note. It is also timed. I recommend that you study under the same or similar constraints.
• Can you work all the practice test problems, without notes or calculator, in one hour? This is a good way to assess whether you are prepared for the exam.
