This is a fork of JMERT's existing GWE solutions and is largely a continuation of that project. The purpose of this fork is to develop the omnibus as to help future students prepare for the GWEs.

In this fork, you will find the following updates;

• Expanded solutions from 2010 - 2018.
• Expanded flashcard categories.
• Expanded index of problems.
• Expanded question bank from 2000 - 2018.
• Removal of deprecated fonts and Greco-Roman glyphs.
• Spelling and typo fixes.

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 using pdfLaTeX instead of XeLaTeX/LuaLaTeX, but no promises are made.
