INSTRUCTIONS

1. Indicate your test version by filling A in question 100 on the scantron sheet.

2. The complete examination consists of 21 multiple choice questions worth one

mark each.
3. Answer all questions. There is only one correct answer for each question.
4. USE PENCIL ONLY.
5. Complete each question by filling in the bubble of the most appropriate answer on
the scantron sheet. Answers on the scantron sheet are considered final.
6. Fill in your answers as you do the test. You will not be given additional time to
fill in answers at the end of the test.
