To help you study, here is a skills list, the first midterm from last term and its model solutions. There have been some small changes in topic coverage between the two terms, but the general look-and-feel of the exam should be similar.

Please tell Margaret ASAP about any conflicts with the midterm or if you need any special arrangements (e.g. due to a disability). If you have a short transit time, you may need to leave the previous class early (and explain yourself to the other instructor). If that class is also having an exam on the 25th, report this to us as a conflict. For last-minute problems such as illness, contact us as soon as you reasonably can.
