Cabanela Lecture MidTerm #1 Results
The MidTerm #1 Solutoin Key can be examined online.
The 120 people who took the first Astronomy 104 midterm got an average score of 37.8/50 (corresponding to a B-/C+) with a standard deviation of 7.2. The high score was 48.5/50 and the low score was 10.5/50. For determining grades, I assumed a score of 48.5 was 100% on this exam.
To access your scores, enter your modified Dragon ID (MDI). Your MDI consists of the last 4 digits of your Dragon ID plus the middle initial of your name (if available). Try first with the middle initial. If your score doesn't come up, try just the last 4 digits of your Dragon ID. If it still doesn't come up, check with your lecturer.
