This semester, we will have an “Exam 0”, 3 theory exams and 3 programming exams, all in the Computer Based Testing Facility (CBTF).
Here is what you can expect:
Grading
As per the syllabus, your performance on each assessment corresponds to 4% of your grade in the course.
Time & Place
You are responsible for scheduling your own exam time. Visit https://cbtf.engr.illinois.edu/ to choose your time!
Theory exams will be 50 minutes and programing exams will be 110 minutes.
Makeup Exams
Given that each exam is offered for a week, the general course policy is not to offer makeup exams. In very exceptional circumstances involving health or other emergencies, a makeup exam may be considered.
Format
We’re still working on the details of the exams… check back soon!
Policies
See the CBTF page for more detailed policies. Here’s a summary:
No hats, gloves, phones, water bottles, paper, or anything else we think might indicate a breach of academic integrity, will be allowed in your exam space.
Please use the restroom before the exam begins.
No questions about exam content will be answered during the exam; If you think there is a poorly specified question (or more than one), please post a private note on Piazza, and it will be handled fairly, after the exam is over.
Practice Exams
Here are the past practice exams; the practice exams were designed for semester with two 3-hour written exams and a final, so there’s not a great mapping between the new and old exams. However, the programming questions should be good practice for the electronic exams.
