Basic Skill Check

The Basic Skill Check will be administered in class on Monday of the second week (01/27/2025). You can access the exam through the link provided below. The exact same exam linked below will be given to you in class. A perfect score on the Basic Skill Check is required to pass the course. I strongly recommend practicing in advance to ensure you are well-prepared. You will have 30 minutes to complete the exam during class. This is a closed book, closed notes exam. No calculators or other electronic devices are allowed.

You may find the CALC1_REVIEW and CALC2_REVIEW files posted on the course homework page helpful in preparation for the prerequisite exam.

Lecture Slides

The lectures are typically given via tablet with some information posted to the course webpage before each lecture. Below, you will find the 'before' notes for each lecture (as they are produced). The 'after' notes will hopefully be posted to the course Canvas page as they are produced. The files are password-protected. You can find the password in item 6 of the email sent to students on Monday, 01/13/2025. This introductory email is the first announcement on the course Canvas page.

Study tips:

• 1- Skim the notes the day before the lecture.
• 2- Make sure you can access the notes during lecture.
• 3- Rewrite the notes (create your own notes) soon after lecture while the lecture is still fresh in your mind.
