Marking Final Exam Papers!

Hi folks, today, i have completed and finished marking the examination paper!

I am thankful that i have finished marking the examination paper. This semester, all of my students passed, and i have NOT failed any of them. The reason being is simple:

1. the students have suffered while learning under me: i gave them 4 quizzes (each worths 5%), and that makes up about 20% of their total marks.
2. i gave out one assignment that worths 5%
3. my colleagues and i gave two tests of which i took them as 10% each and that makes 20%.
4. 10 marks are reserved for key qualifications (attitude, participation and enthusiasm)
5. while the rest is for final examination 40%.

I made no apology to anyone for NOT failing the students. The reason being is simple: to pass, one need to work hard, but to get an A, one need to work "triple hard", for i will not easily give an A to students whom doesn't deserve it.

Anyway, a lot of my students merely passes this subject and only two students manages to get A-. ANd certainly there is no "A" for my students because i know their abilities and capabilities in mathematics.

I would like to re-iterate that i have marked the students in a transparent manner and i only gave them what they really deserve.

Anyway, hope to see you guys soon, perhaps in the next semester!
