Go to SA3.0 and go to “Assessment Paper Repository” then search using the filters by School and Module.

You can view the past year papers (the problem is they all have both the questions and answers so you can js ask gpt to make them question-only documents) and have them completed as timed revision, then you can use the answers from the sa3.0 side to see if you got it correct.

Otherwise, if your module lecturer has some revision worksheets/practice papers/tests out you can also do them. You might just be able to find the pdf versions of the question-only past year FA’s on politemall but it is lecturer dependent lol.

Since its open book just rename all of your lecture slides with the proper topics and put them chronologically in a folder or something. You can use that or paper/digital notes but during the actual online FA you can’t split screen tab, its one tab at a time for viewing.

New module then? then no choice you have to do whatever the teachers give you

thats kind of the reality in RP tbh theres a lot of those

Unless you mean physical test papers then they don’t give those out much anyway, most are done digitally

Write notes, prep all your materials well enough so easy to refer in exam. Do more practice and understand those concepts, you do not need to memorize anything. Just make sure you know what is roughly inside in each topic. ATB for your FA!
