Semester one 2012 exam papers now available
Semester One 2012 exam papers have now become available. These are the most recent papers available to students as an exam preparation tool, and add to the collection already available from previous years.
The Library only receives past exam papers that the Unit Coordinators have authorised to be released. If you can’t find papers from past years for your unit(s), the Library hasn’t got them, and can’t get them for you. You’ll have to talk to your Unit Coordinator.
If the unit is currently in Reading Lists, its past exam papers are available here http://rlms.utas.edu.au/erl/.
Otherwise, to see if your unit(s) has papers from previous years available go to the library homepage, type the unit code in the search box:
