The HUB maintains online test files at http://hub.ou.edu/. You can view, print, or save copies of the test files from this site. You may search for test files by the department or by a specific course. You will need to download and install the free Adobe Acrobat Reader to be able to view these documents. Most of the tests online are submitted by students and should just be considered as a study aid to assist in review. They should not be used as an actual knowledge base nor should you assume that the answers selected are the "correct" answers.
