Rules:

To give all students the same amount of time to do the exam, please do not open the exam until instructed to do so.

You cannot use external resources (cell phones, calculators, headphones, watches, books, notes, neighbors, etc.) during the exam.

Once the exam starts, nobody can use the restroom. If you leave the classroom, your exam will be collected. Students with medical conditions or any other needs must take the test at the DRC. Email me if you have any questions about this.

You might find the words “Version X” across the exam; please ignore them. This is just for grading purposes.
Cellphones, headphones, and watches are considered external resources. You will be asked to turn your cellphone off—not silent mode, not airplane mode, all the way off—and place it in your backpack. If you must keep your phone on or do not have a backpack, let us know so we can keep your phone on the podium while you take your test.
Cellphones cannot be on you during the exam. If your cell phone is in your pocket, it will be considered cheating even if you are not looking at it (the same goes for headphones and watches). We will collect your exam and ask you to leave.
We will ask you to remove your caps and hoodies and show us your wrists.
Place your answers in the given space. You can show your work on any blank spaces except the boxes for final answers.
You cannot speak with anyone at your table during the exam.
Exams will be collected at the end, so you must stay at your desk without devices for 30 minutes even if you finish the test early.
Write your name and student ID (8-digit number) on all the exam pages.
This exam aims to evaluate the concepts we have learned in class; therefore, you should only use the MIPS instructions that we’ve discussed in the lecture so far. While MIPS has many other useful instructions (and the assembler recognizes many pseudo-instructions), do not use them! We want you to learn the fundamentals of how assembly language works. The only pseudo-instruction that is allowed is la.

Do NOT bring to the exam:

Any type of calculator
Cellphone (turn it off and keep it on your backpack. If your cell phone is visible - e.g. in your pocket, we will collect your test and ask you to leave the classroom).
Headphones (we will ask you to show us your ears)
Any type of watch (even if it is an analog watch, you must remove it before the exam starts)
Books, notebooks, printouts, etc.
Scratch paper. We will provide it if you need anything. Raise your hand and ask for it.
Pencil case. Just keep your pencils, pens, and erasers out.

You must bring to the exam:

Pen, pencil, eraser, and student ID.
