Homework Solution number 11 posted.
New! Classroom(s) for final exam changed. Exam

one floor up from the lab).
- People who have the 8:00 lab will start in B53 and do the
computer lab part.

in-class part.
- Everyone will switch rooms at half time and do the other part.
New!
Section on material covered (and material skipped)
now goes for the whole course. The final exam will (in principle) cover
everything in the whole course. In practice, if you perfectly understand
all the kinds of problems on the midterms, that is enough review of the
old material.
New!
Solutions to the second midterm posted.

Reviews
Review of Chapter 7 in Wild and Seber.
Also available in PostScript
or PDF,
which look prettier when printed.
This year's exams will be more or less like last years, but
- these are not "practice exams"
- there is no guarantee that every problem on this year's
exams will be similar to one on last year's
- use at your own risk
- these exams are a good indication of the kind of exams the instructor
writes
- they do not indicate every detail of this year's exams
