Exams are graded

Your exams are graded, and the results are on moodle (instructions). I have only made one pass at grading, so I will have to double check things yet. Caveat lector.

The average was an astounding 89.7 (std. dev. 5.8). I did go a little easy on the grading, but not that easy - you did very well, and I was pleasantly surprised.

Below are some nerdy plots for you (click for larger version): a histogram of sorts; the percentage of you choosing each problem; and of those that chose each problem, the average score. We'll discuss briefly on Thursday what I think they're telling us, if anything.


Hard to draw too many conclusions when the average is high and the standard deviation is low ...
