• The first piece of advice is to read questions carefully. Don’t glance at a question and go off writing: take a moment to understand what you have been asked to do.
• Don’t use tippex; instead draw a simple line(s) through work that you think is incorrect.
• For equations, check your solution by substituting your solution into the original equation. If your answer is wrong and you know it is wrong: write that on your script.

If you do have time at the end of the exam, go through each of your answers and ask yourself:

2. does my answer make sense?
3. check your answer (e.g. differentiate/antidifferentiate an antiderivative/derivative, substitute your solution into equations, check your answer against a rough estimate, or what a picture is telling you, etc)

## Student Feedback

You are invited to give your feedback on my teaching and this module here.

## Test 2 – Results

Have been emailed to you along with final CA results.

## Week 12

We looked at centroids of laminas and centres of gravity of solids of revolution.

We had one and a half classes of tutorial time.

## Week 13

There is an exam paper at the back of your notes — I will go through this on the board in the lecture times (in the usual venues):

• Monday 16:00
• Tuesday 09:00
• Thursday 09:00

We will also have tutorial time in the tutorial slots. You can come to as many tutorials as you like.

• Monday at 09:00 in B180
• Monday at 17:00 in B189
• Wednesday at 10:00 in F1. 3

The exam is on Friday 13 December. Past exam papers (MATH6040 runs in Semester 1 and Semester 2) may be found here.

If you are a little worried about your maths this semester, perhaps after the Quick Test or in general, I would just like to remind you about the Academic Learning Centre. Most students received slips detailing areas of maths that they should brush up on. The timetable is here.

## Study

Please feel free to ask me questions about the exercises via email or even better on this webpage.

These are not always found in your programme selection — most of the time you will have to look here.
