• Coordinator's note
• These exams are provided to aid in your study; they should not be considered practice exams. 
• A "score" that you assign yourself on a past exam is not a reliable predictor of a score on a future exam. 
• There should be no expectation that questions on future exams will be similar to those of past exams. 
• The sections covered on each exam may not be the same from semester to semester
