Calculus Placement ExamBrandeis UniversityInstructions. This is a multiple choice exam. There are five possible answers to eachquestion and only one answer is correct. If you do not know the answer to a question, youshould not guess.Take the exam without referring to any books or notes. Do not use a calculator.There is no time limit for the exam. If you didn’t study calculus in high school, take Part Aof the exam only. If you have studied calculus, take Part A and then do as much of Parts Band C as you can.PART A1.
