Here are some old exams and sample exams (from previous terms).
Several caveats apply: Our term’s exams and course may differ from these term’s exams and courses in important ways (beyond, obviously, the specific questions used!). We do not have additional materials related to these exams that might be missing. We have not recently reviewed these, and we don’t know how well they relate to what our term has done so far.
Some of these require the login “cpsc320” and the solutions password for our term or a previous one to access, which are posted on Piazza:
- 2016W1 Midterm Exam and sample solution.
- 2014W2 Final Exam Practice Problems, video sample solutions, and ugly (in the author’s opinion) hand-written solutions from the videos.
- 2014W2 Midterm #2 and a sample solution (password required!)
- 2014W2 Midterm #2 Practice Problems, video sample solutions, and ugly (in the author’s opinion) hand-written solutions from the videos.
- 2014W2 Midterm #1 (group exam version) and a sample solution (password required!)
- 2014W2 Midterm #1 Practice Problems, video sample solutions, and ugly (in the author’s opinion) hand-written solutions from the videos. (For 5.3 and 8.1 (and possibly a few others), I fell short of what I’d consider total closure on the question. 5.3 is a bit of a broken question; for 8.1, I’m satisfied with my possibly-loose answer (and wanted to move on to the more important 2nd and 3rd parts of the question).)
