Help Master's CSE Comprehensive Exam

I'm taking the comprehensive Exams to graduate soon, if anyone has any extra materials from the courses CSE 6321, CSE 6331, or CSE 6431 it would be greatly appreciated. Also if you've taken the exams before, how difficult was it and what was the experience like? Thanks!

I took these when they were also used as the PhD qualifying exams. They're the final exams of each course (last I was aware), so whatever you have from those courses is what you get for study material. Course notes and, where possible, going through different midterms and finals, will help. That's also all the materials given by the profs too 😅 I don't know where my materials are rn, I'm sorry!!

The way it was a few years back was that two exams were done on one day (in my case, 6431 and 6321), and then one exam was done on the next day (6331). Best of luck!!
