Mini-Exam 2 and Mini-Exam 1 Retake

Mini-Exam 2 Logistics

  • Modules covered: 4, 5, and 6
    • Note: Even though it’s the same number of modules as Mini-exam 1 that does not mean it is assessing the same amount of knowledge. Module 01 was a pre-amble module to remind you all of Python and as a warm-up for the weekly cadence of the class.
  • Timeframe: It will open Thursday 3/3, 12:01 AM, and close Saturday 3/5, 11:59 PM.
    • The exam will close at 11:59 pm regardless of when you started.
  • The exam will be take-home. It is open book, open note, open internet, but closed to people.
    • This means you cannot communicate with a person about the exam, including asking someone through the Internet (like stackoverflow) for help and receiving help.
  • Like Mini-Exam 1, it consists of 2 parts that each have a time limit of 2 hours. Both parts will have data sets and they will be different.
  • All other information is similar to Mini-Exam 1’s. Such as getting the files, Gradescope, Sakai, asking for help, grading policy, etc.

Mini-Exam 1 Retake Logistics

  • Timeframe: It will open Wednesday 3/2, 12:01 AM, and close Saturday 3/5, 11:59 PM.
    • The exam will close at 11:59 pm regardless of when you started.
  • It assesses the same thing as Mini-exam 1.
    • You may use things that you have learned that were not in the modules that this exam is testing (such as .groupby() or .apply()) but you can answer it without knowing any modules beyond what this exam is testing.
  • The data sets and events will be different.
  • You do not need to do both parts. You can only do one part if you wish. You must do ALL of the questions in that part though. We will take the max score per part.
  • All other information is similar to Mini-Exam 1’s. Such as getting the files, Gradescope, Sakai, asking for help, grading policy, etc.
