Professor, we are allowed to use any notes, up to 5 pages, printed/hand-written, correct? |

Are we allowed to use auxiliary vision-aiding devices? Like a magnifying glass. Or perhaps an electron scanning microscope?
My vision is starting to go, you see. |

Still, 5 pages for all the stuff we did in the course is not enough. Specially because there was a lot of content covered and like 10000000000 quizzes. |

You know better than that. There are an infinite number of numbers. Yet you are able to add any two of them without an infinite table of sums. You learn the underlying concepts and how to apply them. You don't try to memorize all the details. |

Do you understand the concepts listed here? If so, you should do fine. |

For each concept in that list you might write down in your own words what it means and the situations in which it is typically used. I'm sure you can do that in fewer than five pages of notes. |
