*The best way to study is to '''do lots of problems'''. Questions similar to both the WeBWorK assignments and the OSH will appear on the midterm. For example, last year, the Midterm 1 questions were most similar to the following WeBWorK and OSH problems:

**WeBWorK 2: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18.
+
**WeBWorK 3: 20, 21, 23.
+
**WeBWorK 4: 6, 19, 21, 22, 23.
+
**OSH 2 (Problem #2).
+
**OSH 3 (both problems).
+
*Keep in mind that not all topics are covered on any single midterm so a WeBWorK or OSH problem not on this list may very well appear this year even if it didn't appear last year.
