Grading the Homework Assignments

I have graded the homework assignments very loosely and without too much attention to detail, on a scale from 0 to 100.

  • In HW1, each of the 4 questions was worth 25 points and the "hard and not mandatory" part of problem 1 was worth up to 20 "bonus" points.
  • In HW2, the first two questions were worth 30 points each and the third was worth 40 points.
  • In HW3 each part was worth approximately 20 points, but I graded the whole assignment as one unit without giving grades to the individual parts.

Grading the Final

I have used the following key in grading the final exam:

Question Grade Total Grade Meaning
34 102 Your essay(s) is/are worthy of publication (very rare)
32 96 Your essay(s) is/are worthy of weblication (rare)
30 90 Your essay(s) indicated solid understanding of the material, but there is no reason for anyone other than you and me to read them (most common)
28 84 Your essay(s) indicated some understanding of the material, but also some gaps
26 78 You've studied for the exam and thought about the material, but not enough

Good Deeds

The good deeds were public and so are the points awarded to them. (Note that work related to HW4 is given credit under homework, not here).
