Welcome to the MAT 137Y website for the 2009-2010 Winter Session.
If you haven't done so already, please make sure you have a copy of the course outline and syllabus which answers most questions about the course.
The exam will cover material from the entire course. The distribution guidelines of marks on the exam are as follows: approximately one-third of the marks cover the topics since the third term test, approximately one-third of the marks cover the topics from term test 3, and approximately one-third of the marks cover the topics from term tests 1 and 2. That is, approximately two-thirds of the marks will cover material from the second term (integration to power series). A summary of all the topics covered in the course is in the course outline, which you can download from our home page. The exam is three hours long.
Calculators or other aids are not permitted. In addition, cellular phones, pagers, electronic devices, pencil cases or bags are not permitted on the desk and must be put away. The presence of any of these items during the exam will lead to an automatic investigation by the Faculty of Arts and Science and could lead to academic sanctions such as a zero on the final exam!
Review Sessions will be held on the Monday and Tuesday before the final exam. A schedule will be posted here shortly.
Exam Archives are available online, however we will post an archive that goes back a few more years. When available, it will be posted on the right hand sidebar of this webpage.
Schedule Conflicts. As you may or may not know, examinations are the responsibility of the Faculty of Arts and Science, not the Department of Mathematics. As such, any concerns about the scheduling of your exam must be forwarded to your college registrar. The instructors are not able to help you out in this case.
Test locations will be posted shortly.
The test covers material from Problem Sets 7 to 9 and Problem Set Supplement 2 (up to and including Section 8.5 of the textbook).
The test consists of roughly five to seven questions with parts. Your solutions will be marked in a similar fashion to your assignments; marks are awarded for justification and presentation. You should not expect all questions to be identical or similar to the problems in your assignments; the term test will require you to demonstrate your knowledge, understanding, and mastery of the material. You will not be asked to prove theorems such as the Mean Value Theorem, however you are responsible for understanding these theorems and you may be asked to prove statements which require the use of these theorems.
Students are advised to arrive at the correct location at least fifteen minutes before the test begins. Students who arrive late to the test room will not be given extra time. Misreading the timetable above is not a valid excuse for arriving late. You must write the test at your assigned location.
Calculators, scrap paper, or any other aids are not permitted during the test -- the minimum penalty for a violation is usually a ZERO on the test! Please bring your student card and make sure it is on your desk during the entire test. Cell phones and any electronic devices are also not permitted during the test: possession of these devices constitutes an academic offense.
Faculty regulations state that when a student has a conflict with another course lecture, the lecture takes priority. If you have a valid schedule conflict, you may write the early sitting from 4:10-6:00, location TBA. If you wrote the early sitting for the second term test, you are automatically permitted to write the early sitting for this term test. If you did not write the early sitting of the second term test, please contact Joel by by e-mail by this Tuesday, stating your name, student number, and the course which conflicts with your schedule. If your schedule conflicts with both sittings, please contact Joel by e-mail as soon as possible.
Test locations are now posted at the right hand sidebar. Please know the location of the room well in advance.

Faculty regulations state that when a student has a conflict with another course lecture, the lecture takes priority. If you have a valid schedule conflict, you may write the early sitting from 4:10-6:00 at UC 266 (University College East Hall). To write the early sitting, you must obtain permission by contacting Joel by e-mail by this Tuesday, stating your name, student number, and the course which conflicts with your schedule. If your schedule conflicts with both sittings, please contact Joel by e-mail as soon as possible.
An archive of term test questions from past years along with solutions will be provided shortly.
Also, there will be no tutorials and no Math Aid Centre hours on Wednesday November 11 (Virtual Monday). Lectures will run as scheduled.
If you have H1N1 or you have flu-like symptoms (fever, runny nose, sore throat, coughing, fatigue, nausea/vomiting, diarrhea), do not write the term test on Thursday and stay at home. You will not need a UofT Medical Certificate, instead you will need to do just two things: (1) contact Joel, and (2) register your flu-related absence on ROSI.
For more information, please see the UofT Preparedness Website regarding H1N1.
Just as a reminder, tutorials begin next week! Start your first problem set if you haven't done so already, and be prepared with questions.
