What This Document Is
This is a scanned copy of a past exam (Fall 2014) for Calculus II (MATH 132) at Washington University in St. Louis. It represents a comprehensive assessment of core concepts covered in the course, designed to test a student’s understanding and problem-solving abilities. The exam is divided into two parts: a multiple-choice section and a hand-graded section requiring detailed solutions.
Why This Document Matters
This resource is invaluable for students currently enrolled in Calculus II, or those preparing to take the course. It provides a realistic glimpse into the exam format, question types, and overall difficulty level expected by the instructor. Utilizing past exams is a proven strategy for effective exam preparation, allowing students to identify knowledge gaps and refine their test-taking skills.
