FAQ

Will there be one exam question for each part?

Markus Kuhn will set 2018 Paper 8 Question 12 and Daniel Thomas will set 2018 Paper 7 Question 14. While these questions are likely focus on the parts led by each, each question may also cover material from any part of the course, or any of its prerequisite courses.
