This web version of the test is Javascript enabled, simply work through the problems selecting your problems on-screen, then click score at the bottom and your grade will be given. The questions you missed will be marked with a checkmark and those you got wrong will be marked with an X mark. This test in intended to allow prospective students to confirm that they have learned and retained enough technical background material to succeed in the Network Science Certificate. We believe prospective NEC students should be able to get at least 80% of these questions right, with no references or calculators. The questions are not nearly so hard as those on a final exam in an undergraduate course, instead they test whether you understand the basic concepts from math, physics, and computer science that you will need in our course.
