Part 1: Multiple Choice
Please read each question carefully before answering. Circle the best answer. There is only one correct answer
for each question. If you are unsure about your answer, you may explain yourself in the blank space provided
below the problem. This may earn you partial points on an incorrect response. If you have any questions during
the test, please ask r. !alpin.
