Kinematics exam: points recovery report

So far I have received and evaluated more than 350 points recovery applications! You can view your exam score and points recovery details here. Congratulations to everyone who did so much great work! I am very proud!

It looks like the powerschool website is down this morning, but I will update the official gradebook as soon as possible.

If you are still not satisfied with your exam score come see me ASAP for more help! Points recovery applications will be accepted until the end of the marking period, but the sooner you get them to me the sooner I can evaluate them and give you another chance if needed.

Kinematics exam study guide – Updated!

The students of blocks 6 and 8 prepared this handy study guide to help you make use of the advance copy of the test you received next week.

NB: This guide was prepared by your classmates, and I promise that analyzing their work will be useful, but you should NOT assume that anything you see is guaranteed “correct”.

Update: The study guide below now includes contributions from the stars of Block 3 and block 7!
