Exam topics

General recommendations:

Look for patterns (especially in quiz questions)
What hasn't been assessed yet? (compare review sheet to quizzes)
Think about what the class found difficult. This might be assessed again to measure improvement.
Remember that definitions are important in mathematics
Remember that mathematics is generally cumulative.
