color:#C00000"ÿþ>ÿþHere are some key things that you should know about the final
exam.ÿþ<brÿþ>ÿþ
ÿþ<brÿþ>ÿþ
1. The exam is open book/open notes. However, it can be inefficient to have to
page through a lot of material in real-time. A good practice is to write out a
few pages of the key ideas/results in the course, so that they are at your
fingertips during the exam. Preparing these notes will also be a good way for
you to review the course material.ÿþ<brÿþ>ÿþ
ÿþ<brÿþ>ÿþ
2. No calculators/computers are permitted during the exam. We will try to make
sure you have no lengthy/laborious calculations that you need to implement. In
particular, there will be no MATLAB questions on the final exam.ÿþ<brÿþ>ÿþ
ÿþ<brÿþ>ÿþ
3. The format of the exam will follow the format of the posted practice exams.ÿþ<brÿþ>ÿþ
ÿþ<brÿþ>ÿþ
4. The exam will cover all the course material (with the exception of the
content covered on May 31), but with more emphasis on more recent material.
Note that the material we have covered is hierarchical, so that the Markov jump
process material builds on knowing discrete-time Markov chains, which builds on
basic probability. You can find a list of the topics covered on the Course
Outline page.ÿþ<o:pÿþ>ÿþ</o:p>ÿþ</span>ÿþ</span>ÿþ</p>ÿþ

honest behavior on the students rather than the course staff, and violations
should not be tolerated. The midterm and final examinations are strictly
individual work and you are not permitted to consult on them with others. You
can consult with others on the homework assignments but you must acknowledge
their assistance. ÿþ<o:pÿþ>ÿþ</o:p>ÿþ</span>ÿþ</span>ÿþ</p>ÿþ
