Review for Exam 3 UMTYMP Calculus I Spring 2025
This exam covers the material from Weeks 11, 13-17 on your syllabus, which correspond to ET §§11.2–11.10
from Stewart’s CCC 4th Custom Ed.
Also look over your lecture notes, homeworks, and groupworks. All of the problems on this sheet are worth
woking on; focus on those topics that you know you have to work on. If you want suggestions: problems
1-9 are a good place to start. Problem 10 is a good test of whether you can take known power series and
manipulate them to meet certain conditions. Problem 11 includes many good review problems from the book.
Problems 12 and beyond provide some extra practice with Taylor and Maclaurin Series, in case you’d like
more practice with those topics after finishing your WebWork assignment. (Any problem from §11.10 will be
very similar to Groupwork and/or WebWork.)

Advice for exam studying
Here are a short bits of advice as you study for the last exam (and next year!)
• Study frequently. Studying for one hour every day is better than studying for 7 hours in one day.
• Work with friends. Then, try to write up your solutions later on your own.
• Also, practice without help. Put away calculators, textbooks, notes, siblings. . . anything which might
help you. Force yourself to complete the problem without help. This mimics the exam.
• Put away distractions. Turn o! the TV, put away computers, hide the phone.
What should you study? We often find that students don’t focus on the most useful study resources.
• The textbook: Briefly review the textbook only for basic understanding. Focus on definitions, theorems,
and examples. Don’t spend much time here.
• Lecture notes: Reread your lecture notes briefly to clarify anything confusing in the textbook.
• Review groupworks: Spend an hour or two reviewing and re-doing worksheets. Finish any problems
which you didn’t complete but that you know are similar to other groupwork and homework problems.
• Review and redo homework: This is extremely important! Pay close attention to grader comments. Re-
view Canvas threads and email instructors with questions. Re-work homework problems from scratch,
addressing any mistakes you made.
• Practice problems: Also very important. Spend a lot of time doing problems from the review sheet,
practice exams, and chapter reviews. Do these without notes, books, or computers.
