Exercise Sheets

This module uses material from its prerequisites, Probability I and Probability II, heavily. To remind yourself of the material we will need I encourage you to have a look at these warm-ups. The Tuesday tutorial in Week 1 (12 January) will be used to discuss this sheet and any other questions you have about background material.

Here is a sample exam paper (error in question 1 corrected on 29 March). The rubric for the final exam will be the same as on the sample and the questions will be comparable in style and difficulty.

There is a revision session timetabled for Tuesday 27 April (see the revision week timetable for details). Please let me know what you would like to cover in this session.

The final examination timetable is now available.
