Math 151: Sections 14-16, Fall 2004
Calculus I for Math/Phys
This information page is for Math 151 taught by Professor Xiaoyun Rong,
assisted by Kai Medville. You can view the syllabus for the class here.
The lecture is held in Hill 116, on Tue. and Thurs, 4:30-5:50.
Homeworks and workshops will be collected at the start of the period. Unless there is a VERY good excuse, late homeworks and workshops will not be accepted. In order to compensate for this, I plan to drop the lowest homework and the lowest workshop grade when computing the final grades.
If you have questions that aren't answered below, please feel free to email me at medville@math.rutgers.edu.
Final Exam:
- The exam will be held on Thursday December 16, 4-7 pm. The exam will be given in Pharmacy 115 on BUSCH Campus.
- There is an available REVIEW SHEET provided by Professor Rong.
- I will be holding a final review on Wednseday, 5-7 pm in Hill 423.
