So getting two fully right was basically a C, and 3 right was a B I think. But it was so fucking frustrating to spend 15-20 min on a problem out of your hour, mess something up, and get no credit for it just the same as if you never even attempted it. Such a brutal and stupid grading method... So yeah, we learned quick that it was better to just find the easiest problems and focus on those. Of course, he also liked to trick us w/ "red herrings" that looked simpler on first glance than they actually were. lol My wife went to nursing school to be an RN and she had one written test every week, a paper and clinicals. If you got below an 80 on the written test, automatic failure and had to n start the semester over again. Under an 80n on the paper, same thing.
