^^^ and I’m wondering if the exams or class is curved in any way?

During office hours, my TA mentioned that although the exam is online and therefore our score is calculated automatically, we won't actually find out until ~3-5 days after the exam. This is because Dr. Lavelle goes through our results to see if there were any unexpected results or inconsistencies (for example, questions that were missed across the board or may have been unfair) and adjusts our exam scores accordingly.

I'm also wondering about this. For now, just continue onto the next topics and make sure you go over the stuff that made you feel confused so that you don't trip over them again in the future!

From what I've heard, there will not be any curving on the tests, but the entire grade overall will be curved (but to what degree we won't know until the end of the quarter). Keep in mind that 200 out of the 400 total points is a C-!

Hi,
I am not sure when grades will be released, but to what I heard from previous students, it usually takes about a week.

I believe the longest it will take for our results to show up is a week, and the shortest turnaround is probably 3 days, but I'd probably count on not knowing until at least 5 days.
