We all know that the very first midterm from university is always the toughest one, especially math. From my experience of the first midterm, I found out that the midterm is actually easier than the written homework we got every week. I personally think, the purpose of the midterm is to “check your understandings” of what we had learned so far. If you want to do well in the midterm, I highly suggest you do more practices, either from WeBWork or previous quizzes we had before. Also, make sure that you understand all the concepts the professor taught in lectures. If you got any questions during reviewing or when you are doing the homework, you should ask your classmates, any of the TAs, or even email you professor for help RIGHT AWAY, don’t keep the questions in secret. If you do everything I said above, you shouldn’t be worried about you midterm.
