Dear students,
After a short break, we came back and reviewed the grading of the exam with fresh eyes. We wrote up a detailed answer sheet to help you learn as much as possible from this exam, as well as to thoroughly understand how we graded it. You will notice that we made some minor clarifications in the text of the questions (wherever such changes could have had an impact on the grading, we made corresponding increases to the scores).
Attached are the new grade distributions. In order to calculate the exam grades out of 6, we chose 48% as the threshold for a 4 and 74% as the threshold for a 6. We then used linear interpolation to compute the exam grades, which you will find in Moodle.
Best wishes for a Happy New Year,
POCS Staff
P.S. Sorry about the earlier problem with the grades on Moodle... due to a mistake in the mapping from columns in the uploaded CSV to the Moodle grade-sheet columns, we ended up putting the overall quiz grade in the exam column as well. That is fixed now. Let us know asap if you spot any errors.
