Quizzes and Exams

Quiz questions are less in-depth, more mechanics and syntax. Quiz questions will come out of the question pool. Working through question pool for first 4 weeks now.

Exam questions are less rote, focus more on critical thinking, algorithms, program design, and pattern-finding. Exam questions will come from question pool.

(Fewer exam questions than quiz questions per pool, of course.)
