The exam (Moed B) was checked | |
|
Exam A grades are available via GR++. The scanned exams will be available next week. The average of the exam grade (ExamB) is 78. The average of the final grade (FinalB) is 80. The final grade was calculated as follows: FinalB = Min(100,Round(0.84*ExamB+0.04*Max(ExamB,HW1)+ 0.04*Max(ExamB,HW2)+ 0.04*Max(ExamB,HW3)+0.04*Max(ExamB,HW4))) ----------------------------------- Appeals should be submitted to the course website (electronically), available under the 'Assignments' tab. You do not need to attach the copy of your exam. You may submit appeals until Thursday, 20.6, at 23:59. ----------------------------------- Informally, the only reason to submit an appeal is if you think that the checker was wrong or did not understand what you wrote. Note also that the grading is based on what was written in the exam and not on what you had in mind during the exam. |

Moed B exam and reception hours | |
|
The Moed B exam will take place on Thursday 30.5.24, at 17:00-19:30 in Ulman 500,501, and 602. ** If you are entitled to an extension (הארכת זמן) but are not assigned to a proper room in the students portal, you need to bring a PRINTED COPY of your extension/Miluim approval. ** The exam is scheduled for 2.5 hours and contains 3 questions. Calculators are allowed (and will be needed), disconnected from the outside world (you will not be allowed to use your cellular phone's calculator). The material includes everything we learned in the lectures and tutorials. When studying for the exam, we recommend going over the course material, homework assignments (whether you submitted them or not), and exams from recent semesters. However, remember two changes regarding this semester: - The exam is (for the first time) with closed material. You will be supplied with a copy of the formula page that appears in the “material” section of this website. - The material does not include concurrency control (locking and recovery). This is typically question #4 in previous exams. Reception hours before the exam will be held at the following hours (they will not be recorded): Gala: 27.5.24 at 17:00-18:00 - in the Zoom link: https://technion.zoom.us/j/92361578218 Oleg: 28.5.24 at 16:00-17:00 - in the Zoom link: https://technion.zoom.us/j/4965481132 Oleg: 29.5.24 at 11:00-12:00, Taub 738. NOTE regarding Oleg’s reception hours: questions about HW assignments (sent by email), as well as other student questions sent by email, will be given priority (in that order). We wish you good luck.
