Excerpt from Mathematical Problems and Examples: Arranged According to Subjects, From the Senate-House Examination Papers, 1821 to 1836 Inclusive The students having resided the usual time in the university, and declaring themselves, through the tutors of their respective colleges, candidates for mathematical honors, are arranged in four classes, according to the degree of proficiency they are presumed to have attained. This arrange ment, however, does not in any way influence the rank or class they may ultimately acquire; as the examination is, for the most part, the same for all the four classes; and the way in which they acquit themselves in it, is the only circumstance which determines their places in the list of mathematical honors, afterwards inserted in the public prints.
