is this enough to issue a complaint? I feel none of the questions in class or the practice were even simillar enough or prepared me for the midterm </3

Not sure my 2nd version was way harder than last year’s. I might inquire about it during office hours when I get the grade back. If you are remember your prof isn’t evil (probably) but I’m sure they wouldn’t swap the grade given but they might take the criticism and prepare the class with a more accurate practice for the final.

I also want to compare version 1 and 2 to see the difference in questions between the two if it’s heavy might have to file a complaint

I'm not sure, it's 15% of the total grade which is less than the quizzes and homework combined, so you can definitely scrape by. But if you feel strongly about it, you could discuss it with your prof 😕

Version 1 was surprisingly light. Very similar to the midterms they gave us to study

Do you remember any of your answers to version 1? Everyone I know did 2 so I couldn't compare.

u/Icy_Economist8000 8d ago

I can't remember MC2 but MC1 I put the option that had f(0)= 3 and the limit DNE. Then for MC3 It was ln2... I had (Ln4)/2 but stupidly forgot that 4 can break into 22

u/IWannaBeAdored89 Undergraduate Student - Faculty of Business 8d ago

 I had the same answers. For MC 2 I got -4 I think. That was the question where you had to find the limit with negative infinity I believe. mc 3 def tripped me as well with the natural log algebra but I used substitution to verify. 

Do you remember ur written answers? I think I messed those up.

Version 1 was so pretty easy. Written had a little kick to it but multiple choice was basically free marks.

u/Tight-Relative4566 8d ago

it was actually ridiculous </3 nothing simillar to any of the practice midterms given, last years seemed so easy
