Exam 2 Graded

Dear Class,

I have just finished grading exam 2. It was considerably longer and more difficult than exam 1, and you did quite well on it. The mean was 76 with a standard deviation of 13 and the median was 78.

You can stop by and pick up your graded exams in 2-301. I will post a solution key and grading scheme shortly.

Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Have a good weekend!

Final Exam Date

Dear Class,

As we discussed in class briefly, the UA Student Committee for Educational Policy has insisted that we move our scheduled exam from the final week of classes (Wednesday, December 8). The third exam will now be during the final exam period on Tuesday, December 14 at 1:30 PM in 32-124. Although we are scheduled for three hours, the exam will still be as though it were given in class, 1 hour in duration.

I apologize for any inconvenience this change has caused. Please let me know if there are any issues with this scheduling so we can work on an alternative situation.
