CS 1110: Introduction to Computing Using Python

Spring 2013

Exams

There are two prelims and a final in this course. Because of the size of this class, the exam times have been scheduled far in advance by the University; no changes are possible. Please make sure that you have nothing else planned at these times.

That being said, we will have a make-up policy for legitimate conflicts. Petitions for makeups should be uploaded to CMS two weeks before the exam date: make-up petition instructions and template.
If an emergency comes up within two weeks of the exam, go ahead and still submit to CMS so we can keep track of your information (CMS will count it as “late”), but also contact the instructors, head TA (if any), and course administrative assistant ASAP.

Exams and Related Material from Previous Semesters

Here are the exams that were given in previous runs of CS1110 in Python. They are useful in studying for exams, because they show you the style of problems to expect. However, it’s important to understand that the content, style, and conventions of the course change a bit from semester to semester, so these exams are not a reference to learn what material you are responsible for on this semester’s exams.
