INFORMATION ON REVIEW QUIZ


TO BE GIVEN FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1997



NO BOOK, NOTES, OR CALCULATORS ARE ALLOWED.

STUDENTS WILL TAKE REVIEW QUIZ 3 AT THE SAME HOUR AS THEIR FRIDAY CLASS

Those whose last name begins with A through K will take the quiz in Rm. 26-100.

Those whose last name begins with L through Z will take the quiz in Rm. 50-340.

NOTE: 50-340 is the third floor of Walker Memorial. Please enter from the river side.

It is important that you take the quiz at the location assigned to prevent any overcrowding.

There will be no make-up quizzes, so in the case of excused absences, the remaining grades will be averaged. A grade of zero will be assigned for unexcused missed Review Quizzes. Excuses for these must be requested in advance of the quiz (if you are physically able to do so) from the Course Administrator. Acceptable excuses will be rare, but will be granted for verifiable and significant medical reasons, for religious holidays, and also for serious personal situations, such as deaths in the family. For conflicts with athletic events, we try to make alternative arrangements for the student to take the exam. Excuses which are not acceptable include doctor's appointments, malfunctioning alarm clocks, the advent of daylight savings time, oversleeping for any reason, or travel plans.

The Course Administrator, Prof. George Koster, has his office in Rm. 4-334, and can be reached by telephone at ext. 3-4870 or by email at phyjbm@mitvmc.mit.edu.

The quiz covers all the material from Units 7 through 10. If you can do all the problems in the Study Guide, you will have no difficulty with the Review Quiz. You might also want to look at the Review Quizzes from the previous 3 years, available on the 8.01 web page (http://web.mit.edu/8.01/www). The Review Quiz will include an information sheet with all the formulas listed as ``Equations introduced in this unit'' for Units 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, and 9. You should understand the meaning of these equations, but you need not memorize them.
