General information
You are encouraged to do the problem
together with fellow students (max four students per group). Readable
handwriting is OK, but you may also use a computer. You may answer in English or
Scandinavian as you prefer. Do not make your answers too long. Write in
a concise way. (Greg Mankiw has nice recommendations about how to write:
http://gregmankiw.blogspot.com/2006/10/how-to-write-well.html.)
During working on the problems you are most welcome to consult me. You can
ask questions by e-mail and I will answer by e-mail a.s.a.p. or you may
consult me at my office (in that case we should make an appointment by e-mail
first).
I evaluate your paper, i.e., evaluate
whether it is "accepted" (corresponding to grade ≥ 02, new scale) or "not
accepted".
To go in for the final written examination (four hours) at the end of the
semester, it is required that the term paper is accepted.
