Dear All, as a "mock exam" to help you prepare for our exam on February 18, please find the exam from the previous iteration of the course in the Materials section. The structure of our exam will be similar to this one. Note that the course contents were slightly different in the previous iteration (for example, WS1S was part of the 2022/23 edition, and not covered in 2024/25; S2S and CTL were not covered in 2022/23, but are part of the current edition). Our actual exam will be based on the contents of the current version of the course. Cheers!
