When will information about the exam be made available?

Perhaps these questions cannot be answered at this time, but I will ask them anyways: Will the exam include material from the term test? And in general, will the focus be on computation or theory? Maybe this is a silly question because 240 is a theory course, but a lot of the proofs we have done are either not entirely rigorous or just very tedious (i.e. many steps are finding the right way to write something out).
