MAT 244 Misc / Advice on how to get faster?

« on: February 13, 2013, 09:58:24 PM »

Evening section/Lash-Miller person here. I did not come close to finishing the term test. I knew how to solve every problem, given enough time, but that's not really good enough.

It's not a very specific question, but does anyone have any advice for how to get faster at this for the midterm? Like, uh, maybe it would help if you said how much time you spend per week doing questions?

I'll find out if there were any technique differences when others post their answers to the problems. Like, I know I worked faster by using the in-class version of undetermined coefficients, but maybe I missed out on something when I missed the lecture that covered the wronskian... I don't know.

MAT 244 Misc / What has been covered so far?

« on: January 27, 2013, 12:48:37 AM »

Due to a terrible illness -- stupidity -- I inverted my sleep schedule and missed two weeks of classes. I am catching up with MAT244 now, but am not sure where to stop in the textbook and homework assignments (somewhere in chapter 3, I gather from reading the boards).

I can't tell which homework assignments come from which week. They are listed according to chapter and section, rather than by week. Can anyone help me here?
