the extent to which the "minor" is prescribed, then such an exam should not
be that difficult to create ... but, to the extent to which a minor can be
any number of combinations of courses ... in stat OR biostat ... with NO
fixed core ... then, i think it becomes more impossible ...
now, for sure ... if there is an exam ... even if there is no fixed core of
courses ... sooner or later there WILL be a fixed core ... since, the TEST
then will be driving the selection of courses on the part of the students
