They don't tend to post the papers online because they use the same one each year....that's what I've heard!

I'm pretty sure they just keep taking questions from past papers and making a new one - although most of the time, the course changes and so past ones aren't relevant anymore. That's for mid semesters.  But, for exams, there might be common questions that you can pick up here and there between past years, but iuts always different.

id find it a bit funny if a place like melb uni just recycles old questions. Id understand for mst cuz its just multiple choice but would be a bit shocked if they did it for the exams.

The biology department are quite strict with regard to releasing the past questions. You will not be given any past exams, rather just a compiled list of questions that they believe are appropriate for the year (according to a lecturer it was because they change the material from year to year etc. and don't want 100 emails asking about whether or not a question is on/off the course, students stressing etc.).

Yes you will get them later in the year. They will give you plenty of time though.
