Information about the final

Here is some information on the final exam that will be held on Thursday, December 21st from 1:30 to 4:30.

You may bring 4 single-sided sheets of notes (or the equivalent), to be handed in with your exam. As usual, no sample problems will be allowed on the notes sheets.

NO BEAM BENDING SOLUTIONS ARE ALLOWED ON THE NOTES SHEETS. Solutions will be provided with the exam if they are needed for a superposition problem. You are welcome to bring a calculator, though it is my opinion that the exam does not require one.
