NOTES:
  1. INSTRUCTORS OF COURSES THAT HAVE MULTIPLE SECTIONS MUST CONSULT WITH EACH OTHER TO DESIGN FINAL EXAMS THAT TEST THE SAME TOPICS
  2. Calculators that perform symbolic manipulations (TI-89, TI-92, etc.) are not permitted for exams and/or quizzes.
  3. Items in boldface MUST be covered; others are optional.
