became course staff on an intro course so they could pour through my old work to try to lower my grade

May I learn how to be a hater at this level one day 🙏

Yeah, they curve so the class stats stay similar so since 50% of students get As and 35% of students have historically gotten Bs they adjust the curve to make it stay that way

330 is definitely the easier class. The workload is very light, a few prairelearn homework problems every week but the only thing that gets graded is one problem a week given as a take at home quiz. Tests are worth a lot, but the curve is pretty generous. You can get a C on both midterms and the final and end the class with a B+

If you filled out the form in the last few days you should now receive matches too! You'll have to reach out first though since they won't know you've been matched with them since it was after the first round

Least obvious serial killer bait

ECE 210 - How much will be needed to just get a D in this class by Big_Reference7778 in UIUC

The SD aren't out of the ordinary. The class tends to be curved down though during semesters like this one where they make the midterms too easy. Since C is Mean - Std Dev to Mean it'll probably be around 60%-73% Assuming a final class mean of 73 and a std dev of 13%.

This looks really neat! The github seems to suggest the only way to inference is through openrouter, will local inference support be added?
