REVISED INSTRUCTIONS:

 

FOLLOW CAREFULLY ELSE YOUR ANSWERS WILL BE REJECTED

WITHOUT BEING GRADED OR EARNING POINTS!

 

THESE INSTRUCTIONS SUPERSCEED THE PREVIOUS INSTRUCTIONS ON YOUR PRINTED EXAM

Because this exam was originally designed as an in class exam, and given that you are now taking this home as a take home exam, you must answer ALL questions, even though I gave instructions to the contrary in class. I HAVE CHANGED MY MIND, and I HAVE CHANGED THE RULES

 

You must answer by hand written copy on a paper, but you can also submit answers by e-mail AND written.

NO FAXES. I need your signature on the answer booklet or answer paper.

DUE NEXT WEEK MIDNIGHT.BY E-MAIL TO Dr. KARRON. LATE SUBMISSIONS WILL BE REJECTED.
