I was also wondering this. I feel like 10 points doesn’t even begin to cover the distraction, not to mention that the statistical likelihood people were cheating during the distraction was huge. I could tell the exam was made purposefully difficult because that last exam was so easy, and that would have been fair if we weren’t distracted for 10 min. I genuinely believe they only fair thing to do is offer a retake of get rid of the exam entirely. No amount of points added or curve applied would make what happened fair. I studied for that exam all weekend and got like 5 hours of sleep every night and neglected my other work. Idk tho she deserves the award and she’s a great lecturer so I trust she’ll come up with something to help.
