Important Instructions
Calculators Possession of own calculator Borrow/exchange of calculators during Quizzes/OHTs/ETT is STRICTLY PROHIBITED Book Frequently refer to the reference books and the text book. Many test problems will come form the end of the chapter problems. Class Notes Not all that will be taught would be easy to find in text book / reference books. Stay attentive in the class and make your notes. You can be tested on any thing discussed in the class.
