CE 415

Midterm review and important

-          You have to answer two questions out of three.

-          Each question has a and b part. a part is math problem and b part is theory question.

-          Math problems will be straight forward like class lecture, only numbers will be changed.

-          Theory questions will be short answered and direct question based on class lecture.

Syllabus for midterm: Lecture 1 to Lecture 6

Midterm information:

Exam time: 1 hour

Type: Physical Exam

Total marks: 25

To be answered: 2 Math + 2 short theory question

Schedule: To be announced

Notes:

Next week, you have 2 review classes online for midterm. After the review classes, if required I will arrange physical review classes as per students’ needs.
