Other notes

  1. There are practice questions from exams prior to 2010 - to help you prepare for the exam.
  2. I strongly suggest you go through the DOE examples in the Box, Hunter and Hunter book (either 1st or 2nd edition is fine). Go through the full factorial and fractional factorial examples, and attempt some of the problems.

    Solutions are not available for these exams, but you've seen many of these questions used in assignments or in the class already.
  4. Some other advice would be to treat the exam like a closed book exam but write up a cheat sheet.
  5. Don't forget to bring your copy of statistical tables and the DOE tradeoff table to the exam. These are not provided with the exam.
