#Rules

1. Stay on topic. All posts must relate to music theory.

2. Civility. Disagreements and discussion are great, but hostility, insults, and so on aren't. Any critiques should be focused on ideas, never on individual users.

3. No homework help on specific assignments. It is against the Academic Honesty Policy of most schools and courses. Our subscribers generally dislike this kind of behavior. Please ask your IRL teacher/tutor for homework help instead. It's important that we get such posts taken down ASAP, so in addition to reporting, please report such posts.

4. Don't make this place annoying. Memes and so forth are fine, but mods reserve the right to remove inappropriate or overposted material.

5. Promotion. Promotion of one's content is allowed, provided it is not excessive or mindless. If you regularly post your content but do not otherwise interact with the community, you will be banned. If you link to something that costs money, you must say so in your post.

Many graduate music programs require new students to take a diagnostic exam in music theory. Many institutions offer practice exams on their websites. Since these exams represent the expectation of knowledge and abilities acquired by the end of an undergraduate course in music theory, they can be useful as study guides or for gauging one's own level of attainment. More links will be added to this list in the future.
