Final Term Grades

 

The final term grades have been posted.  The following may be interesting.

• The average exam score was 86/100
• I graded the “Least” and “Most” questions myself, giving 10/10 in almost every case – you did a good job at being specific.
• I checked that there were not any multiple-choice or calculation questions on which more students got wrong answers than correct ones – which would have implied an error in the way I phrased the questions.
• Two people achieved 100/100

• The following Allowances were made before calculating the term grade

  • Attendance was adjusted
    • 1 “free” lab
    • 2 “free” lectures
  • The Lab grade was adjusted
    • The lowest lab was removed from the lab score
  • The Discussion grade was adjusted
    • The lowest discussion was removed from the discussion score
• The average class score for the term after allowances was 90%
• The grade calculated in VBB is not visible because it does not take into account the effects of the adjustments – which all increase that grade.
