Re: Physics Tests

[Jack Uretsky <jlu@HEP.ANL.GOV>]

Hi all-
        My practice was to give a 15 minute quiz at the end of each week.
Quiz grades were highly predictive of the grade on the two-hour final,
which was an old AP test.
        If there is some interest I can post my old quizzes (someone has
already put one of my old quiz problems on the web).
                                Regards,
                                Jack

Franz Kafka's novels and novella's are so Kafkaesque that one has to
wonder at the enormity of coincidence required to have produced a writer
named Kafka to write them.
