I wanted to make sure you are aware that my midterm exam prep seminar is next week. Although the seminar is really directed towards students taking Math 1500, Part 1 covers topics that are also going to be on the midterm exam for Math 1520. However, there will be no need for Math 1520 students to attend Part 2 since that seminar focuses on topics only relevant to the Math 1500 course.
Part 1 will be on Sunday, Oct. 13.
Sorry it is so early for those of you in Math 1520, but it is unavoidable. I wanted to do Part 1 on Oct. 19, but the campus will be off-limits that day due to a Bomber game. To further annoy you, that also means the seminar is on the Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend. But, what better way to work up an appetite for roast turkey than by studying calculus all day?
On Oct. 13, I will be covering from my book Lesson 4: Limits, Lesson 5: Continuity, Lesson 6: Definition of Derivative, and Lesson 7: The Differentiation Rules. Do not worry if you have not actually seen some of those topics in class yet. I pretty much teach them from scratch anyway.
In addition, any Math 1520 student who attends the seminar on Oct. 13 will receive over 6 hours of additional audio lectures featuring me teaching Lesson 2: Cost & Revenue, Demand & Supply and
Lesson 3: Logs and Exponentials (including Interest and Exponential Growth & Decay Word Problems).
The seminar runs from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm in room 100 St. Paul's College. The cost is $40. If you have a coupon (which you received shortly after signing up for my Free Homework Help), you will be able to come for half-price too. That's just $20!
