Review session

Thursday (6/5) 3:30-6:20pm. Young Hall 2200. Review document (solutions). The review document contains 20 review problems (about 70 parts). The goal of the review session is to cover all of these problems, and I strongly advise attendants to attempt the problems prior to the review session.
