Because my intros have 80 people, I put the examination on the projector and spend about 10 - 15 minutes going over the exam. But it's not just showing what the answers are. I use it to explain the logic behind the exam, its questions, etc. It's a great opportunity for them to see what I think is important, thus a "teaching moment." Beyond that, if anyone wants to see their particular exam, or quibble about the questions, I remind them what my office hours are.
