Due Friday March 7th

  • Which topics and theorems do you think are the most important out of those we have studied?
  • From what we have studied, I would say that the basic proofs of direct, contrapositive, and contradictory would be the most important.  I feel that we still see these kinds of proofs often, no matter what kind of proof we are doing.  I feel like I have a solid grasp on these concepts, but will need to be doing some reviewing before I feel solid.

  • What kinds of questions do you expect to see on the exam?
  • I expect there to be the same kinds of questions on this exam that there were on the previous exam.  I felt like I was adequately prepared for the last exam, but did not perform as well as I wanted to.  I must've been taken by surprise by the material of the test - even though it was very fair.  I believe that if I am to study the material, and go over the homework, I will do well on this exam.

  • What do you need to work on understanding better before the exam? Come up with a mathematical question you would like to see answered or a problem you would like to see worked out.
  • For the exam, I believe the questions involving modulo n are going to be the most difficult for me.  I think back on the homework assignments that we had that involved modulo n, and those were the most difficult for me.  What I would like to review are the different methods and ways to think through solving a modulo n problem.
