On the test tomorrow you will have at least one opportunity to factor a 
matrix.  I recommend that you focus on PARTIAL PIVOTING, but not SCALED 
PARTIAL PIVOTING or MAXIMAL/COMPLETE pivoting. I will not ask you to do 
any factorizations using LU/PLU/LDL, Choleski, or Crout methods without 
providing you with algorithmic pseudocode.

Review the different matrix types (positive definite, symmetric, 
singular, diagonally dominant, etc.) as well as determinants and inverses.

Only other big topic is differential equations -- Euler, Runge-Kutta, 
Systems...
