Fundamentals Exam

Please be reminded that the Fundamentals Exam will be given in class on Wednesday, September 3. You will have 50 minutes to complete the exam. On this exam are 8 short calculation problems (worth 4 points each) and 4 multiple choice questions (worth 2 points each). This exam will count toward 5% of your course grade this semester.

The purpose of this exam is for you to review fundamental concepts from mathematics and from ME 270 that will be used in ME 274 during the semester. A link ("Fundamentals Exam: review notes") to a set of review notes for this exam are found on the left side of the blog page. 

Please review these notes as a preparation for this exam. There are 18 examples provided in these notes. Cover the solution to these examples and attempt to work the example on your own. If you encounter difficulties in solving, go back over that section of the notes. If you still have difficulties, ask for help here on the blog, in the Tutorial Room or your instructor.

Please let us know if you have questions related to this exam.

Good luck on the exam.
