MAPE II Fundies Fall 2018

Testing Directions (Read all directions carefully.) The final answer will have the units pre-written in the question. DO NOT write the units of measure. Answers with anything other than numerals are incorrect. Final answers are to be rounded to the tenth (10th) or first decimal place only. (You may know that for pharmacologic or administration reasons in practice the answer would not be rounded or perhaps only a whole number, but on this test the correct answer is rounded to the tenth decimal place unless otherwise directed.) Rounding is only done after the last calculation. A leading zero must be used before a decimal for answers less than 1 (one) (e.g. 0.7 mg or 0.1 ml). Pencils, scratch paper, and calculators will be provided to the students and must be returned at the end of the exam. You may use your preferred method of calculation. Passing is considered at 100%.
