  The sample exams are from other years, the book used then was different, and the material covered was not exactly the same either. So, you might not find the old exams that useful. The best way to prepare for exams it is reviewing all the exercises done in class, and doing some more exercises from the book, you can come during my or my TA's office hours to ask us if you are doing the exercises right.
