Preparation for Final
Linear Algebra
Fall 2013


Our final exam will be partly review, and partly new material, from Chapters 8 and 9 (Quadratic Forms, Linear Differential Equations) of Bretscher (any edition). As always, one can work problems from the text for additional practice.

Review

There will be three review questions. These will be modeled on problems that have appeared on our three midterms, all of which have been posted. So one may review by exclusively studying our exams. Expect problems that many people found difficult the first time around.

New material

There will be five questions based on material since our last exam. They will be modeled on problems from the following set of exercises. So one may prepare by exclusively studying these exercises.


Problem Sessions

I will give a problem session on Wednesday evening, December 4, from 7:00pm on in Milbank 328 (Barnard).

Nava will give a problem session on Wednesday afternoon, December 11, from 1:00pm - 3:00pm in Mathematics room 417.
