MA171 - Calculus A
Sample Quizzes and Tests

Below are old quizzes and tests from Calculus I classes I taught at Athens State University (MA303 - Calculus I).  Please note that certain topics (transcendental functions, inverse functions, and all of integration) were not covered in these classes.  Also, this class used a different textbook thus chapter numbers will not correspond to chapter numbers in your text.  The bottom line is that these sample quizzes and tests will not be entirely representative of material you will see on your quizzes and tests.  However, I have made them available to help you get over any quiz/test anxiety you may have.
