The second midterm exam will be given on Thursday, November 11 at 2:20-3:35 PM (i.e. during the regular class time). This is the same time for both Tuesday and Thursday groups.
There will be a class meeting on Tuesday, November 9 for both Tuesday and Thursday groups. During this meeting I will review the exam material and answer any related questions.
The scope of the exam will correspond to chapters 9-15 of the lecture notes. Pleae note that while these chapters will be the main focus of the exam, materials from earlier chapters may show up as well. You can print the lecture notes and use them during the exam. You can use your own notes too. Other resources (books, computers etc.) are not permitted.
The exam will consist of 5 problems, but for full credit you will need to solve any 4 of them. Each problem will be worth 20 points.
Exam problems will be similar to homework exercises, only shorter since the exam time is limited. Reviewing the homework assignments 5-8 and additional exercises from the course lecture notes is a good way to prepare for the exam.
During the exam week I will have office hours on Wednesday, November 10 at 5:00-7:00 PM on Discord, so I can help with any pre-exam questions. There will not be office hours on Friday, November 12.
There is no reading assignment this week because of the upcoming midterm exam.
Due dates.

There is no new homework this week.
