Course Materials
- CDF of total point score and grade ranges
- Total score is .5 times final exam score + .3 times midterm score + .2 times problem set score, with each normalized to 100 points.
Means and standard deviations were: final, 59(16); midterm, 50(16); problem sets, 27(6.5) or 89(28) normalized to 100. On the problem sets, the normalized standard deviation
for those who handed in more than two problem sets was 15, and the normalized score of 100 corresponded to 30, i.e. 5's on all 6 problem sets (so a few people were over 100).
