Name (Print Clearl) Student ID# Practice Departmental Final Eam Recommendations to Students: Take this practice final eam like an actual eamination (not like doing homework). That is, create an eam like atmosphere. This practice eam should be taken after completing a thorough review of the material. Set aside a two-hour block of time with no interruptions (no facebook, teting, phone calls, restroom breaks, etc.). Do not use an help aids, such as notes, tetbook, internet, scrap paper, MAC staff, etc. Work through all problems noting which concepts ou know well and which ones ou need to spend more time on. Grade our eam using the answers in the back of our tetbook (the tetbook section and eercise number is noted at the top right of each problem). Rework an problem on the eam that ou missed and then work similar problems from the tetbook until ou can perform the operations without error. Follow the same recommendations for taking the Practice Final Eam Version #. Math 15300 Practice Final Version 1 Page 1 of 9
