What's going to be on the exams?

Exam questions are inspired from the problem sets. The names are changed, the conditions might be a bit different, leading to different answers, but if you know how to do the problems in the problems sets, you should do great on the exams.

We hope that there is a good correlation between mastering the problems and doing well on the exams. Is there?

• Problem sets teach you how to answer the questions faced on the exam. If you did not do the problem sets, then you would not do well on the tests.
• The problem sets were the best thing for enforcing the concepts covered on the tests... by far. I learned the most from the problem sets.
• It wasn't so simple that having the answers got you test ansers; you had to really know how to produce the answers, because a lot of test questions were different. If you weren't much of a problem solver, you didn't do well.
