Math Diagnostic Quiz

Bonus Opportunity Problems (BOPs)
Note: I'm primarily assigning odd problems.
The answers are in the back of the textbook and worked out in the solution manual if you are having problems.
Our SI leader, Jessica, works out BOP problems during SI sessions.
There are copies of the solution manual in the Chem 101/102 Study Hall outside my office in Room 116 HELD and on reserve at the library (2nd floor Evans). You can also go on line and buy yourself a copy. They are meant to be a little more challenging than OWL and a bit closer to exam problems.
