Dear class: The semester grade is now on the homepage. sorry for the late pose, I just got them yesterday. Please check for possible mistakes. You can look at you your final exam at TA's office. Please do so before Friday noon. If you are not in school, you may ask someone to look at it for you, but you have to let me know first. Many of you did not do homework 11 and 12. The effect is reflected in the final exam, which is way below my expectation. You really need to re-study them. I will put them on the first quiz next semester. Please prepare for it. Here is how the grade is calculated. PASSING GRADE: total >= 55 ( or 54.8 ) % weights, 33% adjustment for final exam wq = .24, wh = .16, wm = .30, wf = .30*4./3. % quiz averagae, pick 4 from 5 qav(i) = q1(i) + q2(i) + q3(i) + q4(i) + q5(i) & - min( q1(i),q2(i),q3(i),q4(i),q5(i) ) qav(i) = qav(i)/4. % homeowrk average, pick 8 from 9 hav(i) = h01(i) + h02(i) + h03(i) + h04(i) + h08(i) & + h09(i) + h10(i) + h11(i) + h12(i) & - min( h01(i), h02(i), h03(i), h04(i), h08(i), & h09(i), h10(i), h11(i), h12(i) ) hav(i) = hav(i)/8. % semester grade, calculated in 2 different ways. tot1 = wh*hav(i) + wq*qav(i) + wm*mid(i) + wf*fin(i) tot2 = (wh+wq)*qav(i) + wm*mid(i) + wf*fin(i) tot(i) = max(tot1,tot2) Weicheng
