When you find your seat, fill in the information sheet and keep out your ID, your note sheet, and pens and pencils.
Do not open your exam until told to do so.
After everyone is seated and exam has started, the proctors will check IDs and collect information sheets.
To get credit for the exam, you will need to also sign out as you turn in your exam.
To minimize confusion, you will need to wait until all exams have been passed out and IDs checked before you can submit your exam.
How to Prepare
- Make sure you do all the problems that have been
assigned. The problems (or parts of them) make excellent exam
questions.
- Work through the past exams. These (or variations of them)
often appear on exams.
- While you can photocopy your one page of notes, preparing it by hand is
an excellent way to study. First, go through each problem and notes from each lecture, and make a list of the important concepts and ideas in each. Then, consolidate your list to fit on a single sheet of paper. Include standard formats or templates for coding constructs and design patterns, as well as samples of recurring themes.
