Supplementary Examination

Studying For

As some of you are now aware, simply learning a lot of answers is not enough to pass at uni - we usually ask questions which test understanding rather than fact retention.
(If memory work were very important, I would not let you take in an A4 sheet of notes.)

Therefore, I am not going to post answers to previous Final and Supp Exams.
(Solution Notes for my Mid-Semester Exams are available via the Handouts web page.)

One way to study for the Supp Exam is to do relevant questions from the Final Exam I set last year, and from the Practice Exam I wrote this year, and then discuss your solutions with me during my Student Consultation Times.

I suggest that reading relevant sections of a textbook is more useful for increasing your understanding than reading the lecture outlines - unless there is a particular topic which you know you need to check in the lecture outlines.
