Duration: 1 hour and 45 minutes


Last Name: First Name:

Student number:

Aids allowed:

- One handwritten letter-sized sheet (both sides) of notes prepared by you

- Non-programmable, non-communicating calculator


Standard normal distribution tables are attached at the end.

This test is based on multiple-choice questions. There are 30 questions. All questions carry
equal weight. On the Scantron answer sheet, ensure that you enter your last name, first
name (as much of it as fits), and student number (in “Identification”).

Mark in each case the best answer out of the alternatives given (which means the nu-
merically closest answer if the answer is a number and the answer you obtained
is not given.)

Also before you begin, complete the signature sheet, but sign it only when the invigilator
collects it. The signature sheet shows that you were present at the exam.


Good luck!!
