Words of Encouragement
Dear Class,
Today's test was harder than I anticipated.
The stats were
In fact most questions had easy to find answers, but perhaps hard to find under pressure.
Don't be discouraged. It was hard for everyone, and the final won't be so tricky.
(and of course there will be more time)
I had not intended it to be quite so hard, but even after teaching 18.06 many times, it's still hard to
make it not too easy and not too hard. (most of you found exam 2 too easy!)
Most questions have very instructive answers -- please use this as opportunity to learn.
Sincerely (and humbly)
Alan Edelman
