Wondering about exam grading? 

Midterm/final are graded on a scale of 100 points, broken up as follows:

• 80 points for complete solutions to the given problems submitted via google classroom;

• 20 points for the virtual exam ”in-person” focusing on one of those problems (that I will choose at random):

  • 5 points for knowledge of problem: being able to complete the solution ”live”;

  • 5 points for completeness: writing up the details so that the statistics behind the solution makes complete sense;

  • 5 points for clarity of exposition and oral explanation;

  • 5 points for being able to answer a related follow-up question (e.g., a more in-depth explanation of a definition or a concept that the problem is about).
