CM Exam 2 Revisions Guidelines

  • Use the versions of the questions handed out during the Exam 2 Reflection Workshop. Revisions due to Krishna’s office Lab 2 3255 by 9am Monday December 12.
  • Highest quality solutions are expected; typeset preferred but clearly presented hand-written solutions acceptable. If you produce a narrative solution, emailing a link to Krishna is acceptable.
  • Students may choose to revise any exam questions they like, but must revise the entire question.
  • Revisions to multiple choice questions must include a full explanation (simply choosing the correct response is insufficient).
  • Revised solutions must be perfectly clear, complete, and correct to be considered.
  • You may use any resource to prepare your revised solution. HOWEVER…
    • …Revised solutions must display your personal understanding of the material. This means that you must personally understand every step that you write down, and individually produce the content of your final submitted revised solution.

CM Exam 2, Problem Solving #1

If you are working through the Exam to get ahead on your Exam Revisions, note that Problem Solving question 1 has major issues with boundary conditions. In the original version, the boundary condition should only have been y(1) = 0, and it would have been fine; in retrospect, that is what I should have done on the exam. In the corrected version I updated during the exam, there’s also a problem with the boundary conditions; I had meant to correct it to look just like the version on the practice exam but failed to do so. So in terms of assessment, I only checked up to the part where you would have applied boundary conditions.
