As far as proofs go, we won't do anything too complicated. Expect to be able to prove the kind of things I prove in class when going over homework or when covering a topic (the shorter ones). Also, in the text, whenever they omit a proof, it could be something I'd ask about if they said something like "proof is left as exercise". Something like Theorem 2.3.1. would be nice as well. It's interesting enough to prove, but not too complicated (if you see the trick--use cofactor expansion). In short, nothing crazy, but I want to know that you know how to approach a proof. More involved proofs will be required as we move on to new chapters though.

Do similar problems from the Math 392 finals here. All ones dealing with eigenvalues, eigenvectors and using them to solve systems. They usually don't ask about diagonalization in Math 392, but if they do, do those too.
