The following are the topics to be covered. The proportion of the test covering each will approximate the proportion of the classes so far that have been devoted to that topic. Your homework and the collection of old tests will provide specific examples of the kinds of questions I might ask.

• Analysis. Two sorts of questions are possible here corresponding to the sorts of analyses you have done in chs. 5 and 6: (i) analysis by truth-functional connnectives only with atomic sentences as the ultimate components (the focus would, of course, be on conditionals—i.e., on the symbolic representation of if, only if, and unless) and (ii) analysis using truth-functional connnectives and the ideas of predicates, individual terms, and functors.
• Synthesis. You may be given a symbolic form and an interpretation of its non-logical vocabulary and asked to express the sentence in English. This form might be either a truth-functional compound of unanalyzed component sentences or a form built using predicates, individual terms, and functors as well as connectives.
• Derivations. Be able to construct derivations to show that entailments hold and to show that they fail. I may tell you in advance whether an entailment holds or leave it to you to check that using derivations. There will be some derivations where detachment and attachment rules may be used and where they will shorten the proof. But there will be others where you must rely on others rules, either because detachment and attachment rules do not apply or because I tell you not to use them. In particular be ready to use the rule RC (Rejecting a Conditional) from ch. 5.
  Remember that, if a derivation includes forms involving predicates and functors, presenting a counterexample will require the description of a structure and not merely an assignment of truth values. You will be allowed to use either tables or diagrams to describe structures.
