What This Document Is
This is a practice exam for Math 128, Calculus II, at Washington University in St. Louis. It’s designed to assess your understanding of core concepts covered in the course, specifically focusing on topics likely addressed in the first exam of the Fall 2009 semester. The exam consists of multiple-choice questions testing both computational skills and conceptual understanding. It covers a range of calculus topics, including differentiation, multivariable calculus, and related rates.
Why This Document Matters
This resource is invaluable for students currently enrolled in Calculus II, or those preparing to take a similar course. It’s particularly useful for self-assessment – identifying areas where your knowledge is strong and pinpointing topics requiring further review. Working through practice problems under timed conditions can also help build exam confidence and improve problem-solving speed. It’s best utilized *after* you’ve engaged with course materials like lectures, textbooks, and homework assignments, as a way to solidify your learning.
Common Limitations or Challenges
This document is a single exam and doesn’t represent the entirety of possible exam questions. It focuses on the specific content tested in one particular instance (Fall 2009) and may not perfectly align with the emphasis of every Calculus II course. It does not include detailed explanations or step-by-step solutions; it’s designed to *test* your knowledge, not teach it. Access to the full document is required to view the complete questions and evaluate your performance.
