Pluck Examination Papers For Candidates At Oxford And Cambridge In 1836 is a book written by Edward Caswall and originally published in 1836. The book is a collection of examination papers that were given to candidates who were applying to study at the prestigious universities of Oxford and Cambridge in the year 1836. The book provides an insight into the education system of the time, as well as the types of questions that were asked of candidates.
