MASTERS OF OLD AST 3043 TESTS



Last summer I initiated the practice of posting some of my old tests. I'm sure that there are copies floating around in a few places, and I've started posting them myself to level the playing field, so to speak. Below are links to various versions of the first hour test given in this course in past years. The list is not exhaustive; that is, it doesn't include every test given. However, it should be reasonably representative. You'll notice that there are similarities, with the same questions recurring. Do not make the assumption that those same questions will appear on your test. Also, the amount of material covered has varied considerably from term to term, so some of the questions may be on material that won't be covered on your test.

Although I've been through all of these, it's still possible that some typos have slipped through. If you see anything that looks strange please let me know ASAP so that I can correct it if necessary. When I make corrections or additions I'll let you know on the Reading Assignments Web page, so refresh that page frequently. When changes are made be sure to refresh that particular test page.

I'm also posting the hour tests from the current semester after you've taken them. These can be useful for doing post-mortems on your tests and for studying for the final (if necessary).

One other thing, very important: the correct answer is supposed to be the first one in each list after a question. Again, if you think it might be wrong ask me about it.
