Just physically shipped M381 TMA01 to tutor.
This gives you a rough idea about the topics and available points per question. The qualifications 'easy, normal, hard and very hard' are of course my personal opinion.
1. Euclidean algorithm (12) - Normal
2. Mathematical induction (10) - Easy
3. Division (11) - Normal
4. Greatest common divisor (20) - Hard
5. Division (12) - Very hard
Number Theory (65)
6. URM trace and flow-chart (10) - Normal
7. URM programming (10) - Hard
8. Primitive recursion(5) - Hard
9. URM programming and primitive recursion (10) - Very hard
Mathematical Logic (35)
Counting very easy as -2 ( none this TMA ), easy as -1, normal as 0, hard as 1 and very hard as 2 yields a total which divided by the number of questions 9, added 10 and multiplied by 5 gives a hardness indicator ranging from 0 ( very easy ) to 100 ( very hard ). For M381 TMA01 (( 0 - 1 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 2 ) = 6 * 5 / 9 + 10 ) * 5 = 75.
So when I say that M381 TMA01 was hard you know exactly what I mean. ;-)
You may have noticed that the ratio ( Number Theory points / Mathematical Logic points ) is 2. This is because for this TMA we had to study 2 Number Theory OU booklets and 1 Mathematical Logic OU booklet. For TMA02 this is 2/2.

(Raumpatrouille – Die phantastischen Abenteuer des Raumschiffes Orion, colloquially aka Raumpatrouille Orion was the first German science fiction television series. Its seven episodes were broadcast by ARD beginning September 17, 1966. The series has since acquired cult status in Germany. Broadcast six years before Star Trek first aired in West Germany (in 1972), it became a huge success.)
