Prerequisite material: For those of you who placed directly into
math 212 and want to make sure you've learned all the material in math 211,
here's a link to the web site from last school year for
math 211
where you can find the 211 course syllabus. I'd also suggest students who
took math 211 several years ago go back and make sure you remember the
material from math 211. Math 211 uses the same textbook we are using, so
if you feel shaky on some topics from 211, I'd recommend reading those
sections of the book while it's still early in the semester and doing some
extra exercises from those sections. You could also get help with 211
material at the help sessions, particularly
since these are designed for both math 211 and 212.
