What This Document Is
This document is a final assessment for a Calculus II (MATH 128) course at Washington University in St. Louis, originally administered in Spring 2009. It’s designed to comprehensively evaluate a student’s understanding of the core concepts covered throughout the semester. The assessment combines multiple-choice questions with more in-depth, hand-graded problems, testing both computational skills and conceptual grasp of calculus principles.
Why This Document Matters
This resource is invaluable for students currently enrolled in Calculus II, or those preparing to take the course. It’s particularly useful for self-assessment, identifying areas of strength and weakness before a major exam. Studying prior exams like this one can help you become familiar with the typical question formats, the scope of topics covered, and the level of difficulty expected by the instructor. It’s also a great tool for practicing time management under exam conditions. Students looking to review key concepts from Calculus II will find this a useful benchmark.
Common Limitations or Challenges
Please note that this document represents *one* past exam. While it provides a strong indication of the course’s assessment style, it doesn’t guarantee the exact content or question types on future exams. The specific topics emphasized and the difficulty level may vary. This resource does not include detailed solutions or explanations; it is intended as a practice tool, not a substitute for understanding the underlying mathematical principles.
