6.0001 Final Letter Grade

Hi everyone,

We finished assigning final grades. You can see your grade on your scores page. While there, please take a look on that entire page to make sure that you received scores for everything you think you handed in. Email 6.00-staff@mit.edu if you find anything missing that you think you should have.

We will submit these grades to the registrar in about a week but they won't appear on Websis until the end of the semester. We do not release information about letter grade cutoffs. Take care and have a good rest of semester.

Microquiz 4 Information

Dear students, here are details regarding Microquiz 4 on Wednesday. Notable differences from before is that it is 45 mins long.
---------------------------
General Notes:
* On Wednesday March 17, the quiz will be available at 4pm Boston time and it will be taken down 14 hours later.
* You may begin the quiz within that time period but will have 45 minutes to complete it once you view the questions.
* Your quiz access ends when the 14 hours are up or when your 45 minutes are up, whichever is sooner.
* The quiz will cover material from Lectures 1-8.
* The quiz will be coding and multiple choice questions.
* You may use an IDE of your choice to write code but you must submit code on the quiz site.
* You are allowed to use materials provided in the course (slides or code) or the course textbook.
* You are NOT allowed to use the Internet or discuss the quiz with anyone for the 14 hours while the quiz is available.
* If you have already given me your accommodations letter, your timer will be adjusted accordingly.
* To practice, I highly encourage you to do practice finger exercises on MITx here.
----------------------------
Quiz Details and Logistics:
* By starting the quiz, you are automatically agreeing to an honor pledge.
* Each question has a separate Submit button, there is no overall Submit or checkout password.
* Submit early and often! The submission we grade is the last one submitted. When the timer gets down to 1 second, the Submit button becomes disabled.
* During the quiz you only see one or two, minimal, test cases and their correctness for the programming questions. They are there to avoid copy/paste errors from your IDE to the submission page. Your score will be based on how it performs on the test cases WE use.
* During the quiz you will not see whether your submission to non-coding questions are correct.
* Your score will be based on how many of our test cases you pass (i.e. no need to comment the code). In extreme circumstances, we will manually look at the code.
* If there is something confusing during the quiz, there will be a text box where you can write confusions/assumptions you made.
* To end the quiz, refresh the page and check that your answers are submitted (this is an important step!), and then you can close the page and/or just let the timer run out.
