December exams
Some courses will have their examinations in December so plan your schedule with this in mind. You can reduce your exam load in May, but there is less revision time in December, so try to balance these out.
Calculators
Where your examination takes place in a University exam hall, you may take a scientific calculator into examinations but it must:
- Not be a graphical calculator
- Not be able to communicate with any other device.
You are allowed any calculator that satisfies the above requirements, but examples of acceptable calculators are:
- Casio fx85 (any version)
- Casio fx83 (any version)
- Casio fx-991 (any version)
Note that the University's Exam Hall Regulations state that calculators are not generally permitted. All School of Mathematics exams are exceptions to this regulation.
