Exam Revision

All of the material on this WWW site will be useful for your exam revision. Pay particular attention to the course document. The problem sheets and exercise classes will be very helpful.

If you haven't already found them then you can get copies of past exam papers from The Past Exam Papers Project page.

Rough solutions from previous years (not "model" answers)
