  • The course grade is based 60% on the exam and 30% on problem sets, and 10% on the group assignment (a case write-up). In order to pass the course you must obtain at least 50% of the possible total points for the problem sets.

    The total points for problem sets takes into account your 4 highest problem set scores out of the all 5 problem sets. This is meant to allow for one randomly missed deadline or sick days, etc.  Model solutions are released at the deadline so deadline extensions are not available under any circumstance.

    If the maximum points among all students from a problem set or the final exam is below 100 then the points for all students from that PS/exam will be rescaled so that the rescaled maximum is 100. (This does not apply to the retake exam, due to fewer takers).

    There are no secret methods for obtaining extra credit or additional retakes or deadline extensions. The same rules apply equally to everyone.

      Recall that 50% of the maximum possible problem set points are needed to pass the course. This means 200 points from the best 4 PS which count towards course points.

      There are currently 6 students who need between 1-20 points from PS5 in order to be able to pass the course. Since 20 points is a very low bar, and there is not much time for grading after the PS5 deadline and before the exam this year, I am lowering the requirement to 180 points. Thus, if you have a total PS points above 180 after PS4 you will meet the minimum requirement for PS points to pass this class.

      If you have a total PS points between 130 and 180 after PS4 (7 students), we will make an effort to preliminarily check your PS5 asap after the deadline to see whether you will have enough points to reach 180 points. You will be notified separately.

      If you have total PS points between 100 and 130 (1 student) I recommend that you skip the exam and retake this course next year. 

    • PS5 points will be released later.

      Those for whom PS5 points are pivotal for passing this class (and who returned PS5) have been notified by email about whether they will meet the requirement. See the note above under PS4 results.

      You can calculate your Course Points as 30*(X/397) + 60*(Y/100) + 10*(Z/100) ,

      where X is the sum of Points from your best 4 problem sets, Y is Points from the exam, and Z is points from the group assignment. 

      Final grades are based on the Course Points cutoffs 85-70-60-50-40, and X >=180 is required for passing. Grades should appear in the registry within a few days.
