Examinations consisted of an essay section and a short-answer section (matching, true-or-false, and multiple-choice questions). This format was replaced in 1997 and 1998 with comparable questions derived from CAPA homework problems. The point values for the short-answer section or the CAPA section (points/total points on test) for each examination in these semesters are listed.
