Past exams and study material

• A handout on vector calculus*
• A vector calculus* reference table
• A handout on tensor calculus*
• A handout on contour integration*
• A handout on Euler's Gamma function*

• Some sample quizzes*
• A pretest* and a sample double quiz*, for self-testing
• The first mid-term exam* (and its solution*)
• The second mid-term exam* (and its solution*)

Both mid-term exams had an in-class and a take-home component. After having done as much as possible in-class (in 1 hour), the students completed and corrected their work over the next couple of days, at 2/3 of credit. That is, a proposed take-home solution (or part thereof) superseded the in-class attempt. However, as take-home effort only carried 2/3 of the credit, students should have reworked only those (parts of) problems where they could successfully solve at least 1.5 times more than they did in-class.

• The final exam*, take-home and comprehensive.
