• Final will have 16 numerical and 16 conceptual problems. Half the final will be based on material of last three problem sets, while the other half will be confined to the first 9 problem sets. There will be no questions on the final related to the first nine problem sets which are not similar to problems from the midterms posted on LON-CAPA for either the on-line or the lecture sections. Thus, studying these six midterms should be an excellent way to prepare for the "old" material on the final.
