I finished grading the exams. I was very happy with the performance. Thelowest grade was a B, and that is not because I am an easy grader. Almosteveryone got full credit on Part A and half to full credit on part C. Mostpeople missed part but not all of Part B. Part D was difficult (as intended)and only a couple of people got full credit or close to full credit, but Igave partial credit to many people.

The exams should be in mailfiles. If you do nothave a mailfile, you should have gotten an e-mail asking you to collect theexam in Simon 220. That office will be closed Wednesday through Friday.
