In order to obtain password for accessing CAP High School Prize Exams, you must request them by e-mail from capexam@physics.ubc.ca.  Please include the word “password” in the subject line.  Please do not send any other emails to this account, as it will not be read by anyone.  This account is intended to respond to requests for passwords only.  Please note that there is an intentional 24 hour delay in the response so that there is some time to work through the problems before the solutions are available, so don’t fret if you don’t receive a response immediately.
