Directions for Statistics Tests/Quizzes/Exams: 
YOU MAY PRINT THIS AND KEEP IT WITH YOU WHEN TAKING EXAMS
(Note: Departmental Final Exams at Nova SU may have different directions.  Ask.)

This section applies to all tests.
Some questions may have multiple choices by them.  However, you must treat the test/quiz/exam as if it is a non-multiple choice exam.  Regardless of the difficulty level of the question or whether you can mentally figure the answer, ALL QUESTIONS REQUIRE A SUITABLE EXPLANATION near the answer or NO CREDIT even if your answer is correct...don't expect your instructor to know what you mean...he wants to know that you know what you mean  For computational problems, ALL WORK MUST BE SHOWN or NO CREDIT even if your answer is correct. Or, for problems done on your calculator, you MUST CLEARLY WRITE THE SETUP or give an explanation or NO CREDIT even if your answer is correct. 

The statement below may appear on some tests.
I understand that I must show all work for credit if work is needed or an explanation if work is not needed.
