Lecture Notes
The lectures will be based on the following set of notes.
Past Exams
Important note for students regarding past exam papers:
Past exam papers are published for illustrative purposes only. They can be used as a study aid but do not provide a definitive guide to either the format of the next exam, the topics that will be examined or the style of questions that will be set. Students should not expect their own exam to be directly comparable with previous papers. Remember that a degree requires an amount of self-study, reading around topics, and lateral thinking – particularly at the higher level modules and for higher marks. Specific guidance for your exam will be given by the lecturer.
