Exam Update Semester 2, 2018


Kia ora students,

With semester 2 exams fast approaching (12th to 23rd November), Unitec Library is here to help. Firstly, we have a study guide: Exam techniques, which is full of good advice for revision and exam survival.

We also have previous exam papers on the library catalogue. Searchable by your course name and number  e.g., CONS 7906 





Here is our guide:  Exam papers – How to Access

“Obtaining – and working on – as many past examination papers as you can should be an essential part of your revision and planning.” 1

Finally, Unitec Library  offers a great place for quiet revision (Ask Me staff can direct you to quiet study areas), and study rooms (book a group study room).     


Ngā mihi nui,
Unitec Library staff
