Review

OPTIONAL Review Quizzes:  Every lecture topic comes with a list of review questions, that will be posted here.  To do well on exams, you should NOT rely ONLY on these questions.  Write your own exam questions, review your notes, go over the slides and ask yourself what sorts of informational or conceptual questions could I ask about each slide.  Exams WILL include questions not listed on the review sheets.
