Comments

As far as my exams go, this one is archtypical. Time-management is important, so it was important to study so that questions 1-4 would go quickly. As is also typical, the enumeration question was the hardest.

The ranges of grades are below. I am not breaking up grades into "B+" or "A-". Instead, I simply break them up into ABCD, and use those scores to calculate your final scores. When I get the overall class scores, I will break up the B's into A-/B+/B, and the C's into B-/C+/C.

A+: 70 to 80 (The total number of points was 85, but no one broke 80)
A: 61 to 70
B: 50 to 60
C: 40 to 50
D: 30 to 40
F: Below 30

Tukey Plots

This is a Tukey Plot, which has lines to the max and min, yellow box denoting the 1st and 3rd quartiles, hash marks at the median, and dot at the mean.

In the answers and grading, there are histograms of scores for each question, and a grid of the answers given for Question 3.
