CSE 143x: Computer Programming I/II, Autumn 2016

Regrade Policy

You may request to have your work regraded, but when you do so, you are submitting it for a complete regrade. Your score can go down as a result. For example, you might get back a point on an assignment that shouldn't have been taken off but you might lose other points that should have been taken off. Or you might get points back on one exam question only to find that you should have lost points on some other exam question.

Homework, labs and exams are graded differently and so regrade requests are handled differently for each:

• Homework

  Students are encouraged to first discuss homework grading with their individual TA. If you aren't sure why you lost a point or if you disagree with the TA's evaluation, you should start by talking to your TA to see if you can resolve it directly. If not, you can request a regrade.

  For homework regrade requests, fill out this survey: Regrade Form

• Exams

  Exams are graded collectively by the course staff, so individual TAs have less power to deal with exam grading issues. A TA can correct obvious errors like an addition error or an obviously correct answer that has been marked as incorrect. For more detailed grading issues, you should request a regrade.

  Final

  For final regrades, give your exam to Connor along with a short note describing what part of the exam you think was graded incorrectly. Midterm regrade requests must be submitted by Wednesday, January 11th.

  You are required to test your exam solutions for certain programming problems before turning them in for a regrade.

  • Test10.java (for testing answers to problem 10)

  You can use the testing program to find out how close your solution is to being correct. If you find that your solution was either correct or close to being correct, then you may turn in your test for a regrade with a note explaining as much.

  Note: Regrades must be turned in to the front office

  Midterm

  For midterm regrades, give your exam to Connor along with a short note describing what part of the exam you think was graded incorrectly. Midterm regrade requests must be submitted by Monday, November 4th.

  You are required to test your exam solutions for certain programming problems before turning them in for a regrade.

  • Test9.java (for testing answers to problem 9)

  You can use the testing program to find out how close your solution is to being correct. If you find that your solution was either correct or close to being correct, then you may turn in your test for a regrade with a note explaining as much.
