Sample Exams (with answers) up on Stellar
Hi All,Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! Quick update: Past exam papers (2011-2016) have been added to stellar under "Sample Exams". Please note:
1. There are two versions of each exam - one has the questions alone and the other one includes model answers as well.
2. Topics and emphasis vary each year for the exam, depending on current issues. Some of the past exam questions, therefore, might not be relevant. This year's test will be about what was discussed in class this year. The past exam papers have been provided more to give a sense of what the final exam would look like.
Let us know if you have any further questions.
