I say "the first written exam" because ordinal numbers take "the" before them, and you mention a specific exam.

Default Re: the first written exam or first written exam

I think it depends in which context it is .IF it's notes taken it should be 'first exam ' if you're talking about exams and ordering them you should use 'the first exam'.
