Need Help? The Math Lab in B860 East Hall has Math 116 instructors happy to help you Mondays–Thursdays 11am–4pm and 7pm–10pm, Fridays 11am–4pm, and Sundays 7pm–10pm. This is a fantastic resource, and I strongly encourage you to take advantage of it.

Note: in different years there can be slight differences in which topics were covered in this course, or whether students can use calculators during exams. So be aware that, if a question from a past exam looks unusually difficult to you, then it's possible that the question isn't realistically do-able given what has been done in the course this year.
