	===~~=Appeals=~~===		===Further Thoughts===
			Upon further thought and after talking to some students and some email exchanges, I think I made (at least) three mistakes around this term exam:

			* It was too long, overall, especially given my insistence that "neatness counts, language counts". Asking just three of the four questions would have been enough.
			* Question 3 required too much abstract thought given the time constraints. I should have either given a significant hint or left it out.
			* I shouldn't have "rushed to publish" - I should have given myself a little more time to think before returning the exams. Marking up is always possible, but it is better done before the grades are first published, not after.

			Anyway, in light of the first point above, I will consider this exam as if the perfect mark in it was 75, effectively multiplying every grade by a factor of 4/3. The few people whose grade now is more than 100 get to keep those extra points, though the maximal possible grade in this class remains an A+.

			People who haven't tried don't realize how hard learning may be, forcing you to confront your fears and insecurities (yet it is well worth it!). Try teaching (recommended!) and you'll see it's hard too. After more than 20 years I still make mistakes.

			===Appeals===
	Remember! Grading is a difficult process and mistakes '''always''' happen - solutions get misread, parts are forgotten, grades are not added up correctly. You '''must''' read your exam and make sure that you understand how it was graded. If you disagree with anything, don't hesitate to complain!		Remember!
