\item Use the provided \textbf{exam bucklets} and indicate your name and \textbf{ID on each page}.
\item Use a \textbf{black or blue pen} (no other colors). If you think you answer is wrong just mark it that it is wrong, and write the new one.
\item Provide \textbf{as many details as possible}, unclear answer might lead to a lower mark.
\item \textbf{Organize your work}, in a reasonably neat and coherent way, in the space provided.
Work scattered all over the page without a clear ordering might receive very little credit.
