Paper format. National Exams, December 2015 — 98-Civ-A3 Environmental Engineering. Three hours; closed book with one candidate-prepared 8½ × 11 double-sided aid sheet and an approved Casio or Sharp calculator. Seven problems of 20 marks each; any five constitute a complete paper and only the first five answers appearing in the work book are marked, for a maximum of 100 marks. The complete Marking Scheme is printed on page 8. All seven problems are solved here, because this set is a study resource rather than an examination script.
