If the list is modified for future examinations, the Director of Graduate Studies will distribute copies of the revised version to all active graduate students and to faculty. Students are responsible, however, for verifying with the Director of Graduate Studies that they have the version of the list on which the next General Examination will be based. They should verify this well before they notify the Director of Graduate Studies of their final intention to take the examination. The list is divided into three corresponding groups. We have established informal subgroups within some of the groups.
Some readings are relevant to more than one examination.
