Your Algebra Homework Can Now Be Easier Than Ever!

Math 095 Exam 2 Study Guide

1. The exam covers Sections 3.3-3.8, 4.1-4.5. The exam will be closed book, closed notes, and turned off cell phones. Calculators are allowed .

2. Practice doing problems without using the book or your notes. I will only test you on ideas that we have covered in class and on your homework.

3. Review the topics and do the problems listed below. Review homework and in-class worksheets. If a certain problem type is difficult for you, do some other problems like it in the book for more practice.

4. Do not wait until the night before the exam to begin studying.

5. Make sure to show all your work.

6. Do not skip an exam. Check my syllabus for exam policy.
