This test consists of 84 multiple choice questions worth 1 mark each (no part marks), and 1
question worth 1 mark (no part marks) on proper computer card filling. All questions must be
answered on the COMPUTER CARD with an HB PENCIL. Marks will not be deducted for
wrong answers (i.e., there is no penalty for guessing). You are responsible for ensuring that your
copy of the test is complete. Bring any discrepancy to the attention of the invigilator. Only the
McMaster standard calculator Casio fx-991 is allowed.

NOTE: On the sample tests, a version number is not given. On the actual tests, it will say
"Version X" at the top, where X is the version number that you will have to fill in on the
computer card. The sample above assumes that your student number is 008816132. On the
actual test, you will have to fill in the bubbles corresponding to YOUR student number (not
008816132).
