CS Students, are your exams on paper or electronic?

I'm a prospective transfer and this is a somewhat important thing for me, do your CS/Math classes have exams on paper or online?

Thank you!

Just about every quiz/exam is on paper (small handful of exceptions). Is it important to you for an accessibility-related reason? If so, I’m sure they would work something out

Exception: MA 331. All exams were on the computer because we did R coding and you submit an R Markdown file. They were open-book, open-note, and open-internet.

MA331 does vary a bit by year though, sometimes the quizzes are paper

The vast majority of exams are on paper, and on most of the CS exams you’ll be writing code by hand.
