The Test
Our Term Test 1 took place on Tuesday January 17, 5-7PM at EX 300. See TT2-1617-257.pdf.

90 students took the test. The results so far, before appeals and with one test left to mark, are (median underlined):
100 100 100 100 99 97 97 97 96 95 94 93 93 92 90 90 90 90 90 89 88 88 87 85 85 85 84 84 84 83 83 80 79 79 78 77 76 75 75 75 73 73 72 72 72 72 71 71 70 70 69 68 66 66 65 65 64 63 62 62 62 62 61 59 59 58 58 57 56 55 54 53 53 53 53 53 53 52 49 45 42 39 38 38 36 35 35 31 29 29
The exams will be returned in class on Monday January 23 at 2:50PM.
The results are similar to what I expected them to be and to the results of the previous term test (though a bit better). Please re-read my comments on 1617-257/Term Test 1.
Appeals
Remember! We try hard yet 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! (Though first consider very carefully the possibility that the mistake is actually yours). Your first stop should be the person who graded the problem in question, and only if you can't agree with him you should appeal to Dror (within a further day or two).
Dror marked problems number 3 and 6 and did the arithmetic and data entry. Jeffrey Im marked the rest.
The deadline to start the appeal process is Monday January 30 at 3PM. Once you've started the process by talking to Dror or to Jeffrey, it ends when a final decision is made, with no deadline.
