Instruction
• No items other than pen, pencil, eraser, your student ID card, and a water bottle are
allowed. You must put all of your belongings that are not allowed in your bag and put
your bag under the desk.
• Before you start, fill out the identification section on the title page and on the header of
each page with an inerasable pen.
• Show your work for full credit and write the final answer to each problem in the box
provided. You are encouraged to write in English but some Korean is acceptable. You
can use the back of each page as scratch spaces but anything written there will not be
graded.
• The exam is for three hours in length. Ask permission by raising your hand if you have
any question or need to go to toilet. You are not allowed to go to toilet for the first 10
minutes and the last 10 minutes.
• Any attempt to cheat or a failure to follow this instruction leads to serious disciplinary
actions not limited to failing the exam or the course.
