STAT302: Secs 102 & 103Summer I 1998Exam #2Fo r m AInstructor: Julie Hagen Carroll1. Don’t even open this until you are told to do so.2. Be sure to mark your section number and your test form on the scantron!3. Sign your name where indicated on your scantron and write your Wednesday section number andcomputer number beside it. Also, you must place your scantron in the correct section stack (for nextWednesday).4. There are 20 multiple-choice questions on this exam, each worth 5 points. There is partial credit. Pleasemark your answers clearly on the scantron. Multiple marks will be counted wrong.5. You will have 60 minutes to finish this exam.6. If you are caught cheating or helping someone to cheat on this exam, you both will receive a grade ofzero on the exam. You must work alone.7. This exam is worth 100 points, and will constitute 20% of your final grade.8. Good luck!1STAT302: 102 & 103 Exam #1, Form A Summer I 19981.
