Instructions
• Blank pages have been included at the end of the exam. These may be used for rough calculations.
They will not be graded. Do not detach blank pages from the exam paper.
• The use of notes, books, calculators, and any electronic devices is prohibited.
• Print your name and student number clearly at the top of every page in the space provided.
• Remember to fill out you name, student number, section number, exam version code and your
answers on the Scantron sheet.
All questions are multiple choice. Enter the best answer on the ScanTron sheet using an HB or # 2 pencil.
You do not need to show your work. In addition to entering your response on the ScanTron sheet, you
may also wish to circle your response for your own records (ScanTron sheets will be graded, but will not
be returned to you). [1 mark each = 32 marks]
