Final Exam: Coverage • Everything covered in lectures, labs, and assignments
Final Exam: Structure • Five parts • You will be asked to build at least one model from scratch • Some T/F or MC questions
Final Exam: Where to go • Check “Final Exam Lab” link to see your lab • To be posted shortly (upon confirmation of the class list from the University) - an email notice will be sent out • Do some of your studying there • Check the lab schedule • Staggered start times • Either 9:00 or 9:05 • Everyone will get 3 hours • Expect to get into lab 15 min. before start • Assigned seating, alphabetical by last name
Final Exam: What to Look For • Printout with your name on it • Contains the questions • Not to be handed in • XLS file to download with data and answer sheet
Final Exam: Help with Studying • Two practice final exams have been posted • Lab tomorrow will cover Congestion • Please make use of the discussion forum • Don’t email the TAs with your questions, they will be answered much more quickly on the forum
Final Exam: Reminders • Can only use one monitor • Save at least every 10 min • When you save you should take the time to submit or at least submit after you complete each section • This is to save you if your computer crashes and we have to move you • Do a test submission at 10 min • Five-minute warning: save and submit immediately
Final Exam: Reminders • Have a plan B:Practice finding good solutions without Solver / data table / EOQ formula / whatever • Each lab will have a proctor • Content questions: • Designated “content person” for each lab • Will introduce themselves at beginning of exam • Trained for consistency
Keeping Your Computer Happy • Don’t open too many windows • Guideline: two browser windows + two open Excel files • Data tables – don’t make them too big • Freeze simulation results • This has caused problems in the past… if you do not know how to, ask your proctor before your computer crashes • Solver: • Always save before using • Taking more than a few seconds? • Usually means your model or solver settings are wrong • Use escape key to stop • If it is sluggish and you are confident in your model have the proctor reinstall it for you
