The curriculum in this course is the material covered in Oystein Elgaroy's lecture notes, except for the following (sub)sections: 1.10.7, 1.12, 2.5, 2.6, 3.4.3 in the first three chapters.

For chapter 4, the following parts of the chapter where covered: 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.5. In 4.4 a qualitative understanding of the content is expected, but the details of the derivation has not been covered and is hence not on the curriculum. The same is true of sections 4.6 and 4.7 Section 4.8 was covered up to equation 4.92. In addition you are expected to know whether a cold spot is an overdensity or underdensity on large scales, to think qualitatively about how the cl’s woud change if one changed the universe geometry, contents etc.

Problems solved in the lectures and exercise sessions are also part of the curriculum
