Solutions to the School of Physics and Astronomy at the University of
Minnesota's past Graduate Written Exams (GWE). The solutions can be built by
running xelatex
on solutions.tex
.
There is also an accompanying file, flashcards.tex
, which provide a set of
quick references in physics in flashcard form. The document makes use of the
flashcards
package and can be easily modified to make use of different types
of pre-cut papers; the default makes use of Avery 5371 perforated paper.
Because I mainly have taken care of these sets of solutions myself, there may be some incompatibilities when transfered to other systems. In particular, I make use of the XeLaTeX system rather than the typical pdfLaTeX system, so there are additional font dependencies beyond what TeXLive typically provides. A best effort has been made to make the solutions compilable (if not pretty) when useing pdfLaTeX instead of XeLaTeX/LuaLaTeX, but no promises are made.
