Problems listed here are unequivocally worth doing for practice. Those omitted from this list are omitted for a number of possible reasons - some are simple warm-ups that are unlikely to appear on a midterm or exam, some include at least one part that requires a computer or graphing calculator, some are of a slightly more theoretical nature than I don't expect you to be able to do on a midterm of exam and others may have just escaped my search by accident.
