1. Final exam statistics - The average was 130, much higher than I expected (100-110). 9 people got above 90%(=180). Among those people, 3 people got over 200 due to the extra credit problem. I am extremely pleased with the result. Many of you worked hard and showed on the final that you did. If you want to see the final exam answers, click here.
