Past Midterm exams

Here some old midterm exams. Be aware that these exams do not cover the same topics as this year's exam.

2013 October Midterm Test (ignore questions 1, 6(c))

2014 October Midterm Test (this exam tested only up to Section 2.0)

2015 October Midterm Test (this exam tested exponential functions and conditions for differentiability, which are not included in this year's exam)

Other Information

Missed Midterm Tests: Allowance for a missed midterm test may be granted in the following two circumstances: (a) prior notice of a valid, documented absence (e.g. out-of-town varsity athletic commitment) on the scheduled date; or (b) notification to the instructor within 72 hours of absence due to medical condition. Otherwise the score is 0. Original written documentation (for example a doctor’s note or letter from a coach) is required.

Students with a scheduling conflict are allowed to write the test on an alternate date. Please contact your instructor for details about the alternate test.

Cheating: UBC takes cheating incidents very seriously. After due investigation, students found guilty of cheating on tests and exams are usually given a final grade of 0 in the course, suspended from UBC for one year, and a notation made on their Transcript of Academic Record. More information.
