Practice for the Final Exam
In addition to the homework problems and quizzes, there are resources from past instructors with solutions. The best way to prepare for the final is to do as many practice problems as you can. You should also know all the definitions and theorems we have used. If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask!

Exam 1 grades posted on Trunk
Your midterms are graded and you can view your exam score on Trunk through your gradebook.
The exams will be handed out on Thursday, discussed, and COLLECTED immediately afterwards. They will live forever after in my office, for your viewing pleasure during office hours and appointments. You are welcome to visit your exam tomorrow 10:30am-12pm, or send me an email if you cannot make that time.
On Thursday we will discuss the exam and then begin the next module of the course: compensation. The material takes a bit of a turn, so to prepare you should read Chapter 13 on fairness and envy-freeness. There will not be a quiz.
