Well, it's been a long time coming, but finally (thanks to a couple of quieter days because of entrance exams), I have been able to compile a collection of the more amusing, even surreal answers, to some of the Tests that were given by me to 3rd/4th year classes back in Jan/Feb 2013. Hope you enjoy them!
