Final Written Exam Information

One of the requirements for the M.S.L.S. Degree is the successful completion of the final written exam. The exam is given once during the fall, spring, and summer 8 week sessions. LISSO usually coordinates a review session each semester to help students prepare for the exam. In addition, video and cassette tapes of previous exam reviews are available in the Center for Applied Information Technology. We also have sample answers to selected exam questions that were judged to be good to excellent.

Two sets of sample answers to selected final exam questions are available. The most recent samples are from the 2002 exams; there are also samples from 1995. Keep in mind that there have obviously been many developments since those answers were written, but these samples still give a good idea how an answer addressed the question and the level of completeness that is considered desirable.
