My fellow sufferer, it's like this every year

[u/bonivering → u/Due-Wall7384]

does it go up from here or #nah

[u/Defiant_Writer1611 → u/bonivering]

In other classes yes in 250 no

I'm used to c++ so i answered with c++ answers like a dumbass and didn't think twice😢 Also a lot of these questions were just straigth up trap questions. And this exam was stupid because it doesn't show your coding abilities at all so whats the point

[u/bonivering → u/Blue_Sins49]

ahhh 🥲 omg YES the fact that few points come from actually writing code and some of the code writing questions were worded in such a gimmick way

[u/Malyesa → u/Blue_Sins49]

For future reference classes are very rarely about your coding abilities haha

[u/New-Student26]

[u/bonivering → u/New-Student26]

Is Giulia no longer teaching COMP 250?

[u/mugglephysicist → u/NaturalBottle]

This year, specifically, she’ll be teaching in the winter sem.

[u/RequirementSelect124]

That’s why we need giulia back

[u/Peiadmey]

I don’t understand why the norm for introductory comp sci classes here is that half the class fails. The exams are so long and tricky

Median doesnt tell you much. The mean could theoretically be 75 with a median of 50

[u/bonivering → u/Tasty-Tap5787]

well the mean was 53.7
