Information and tips for the exam

  • The exam is comprised of four problems with a total of ten subproblems.
  • All ten subproblems count equally towards the final grade. If there is a subproblem you cannot solve, you may still use the result in the sequel.
  • Neither the problems nor the subproblems are intentionally ordered according to my perception of their difficulty.

One of the dangers of a home exam with all aids permitted is to waste time consulting various sources when you should be working on the problems. Here are two concrete tips to avoid that.

  • Consult the review lectures (Lecture 16 and Lecture 34) and make your own note with important definitions and results.
  • If you maintain PDF versions of the literature, remember to search! For example, if a question refers to the concept "shrubbery", you can quickly verify that this word is not mentioned in Spaces or ELA.
