Abstract
Maclaurin series expansion which is taught at undergraduate levels and which has been previously used for the solution of initial value problem is successfully used in this paper for the solutions of seventh-order boundary value problems. The governing equation defined between boundary points 0 and 1is differentiated to get high order derivatives and the assumed solution is expanded in Maclaurin series then, the boundary conditions at x=1 are utilized to determined unknown coefficients. The method is simple and the numerical results displayed on the tables were found to be in good agreement with the solution and even better than some existing results in the literature. This agreement is also confirmed from the figures were the graph of exact solution and approximate solution overlap.
