HS 3801's grading scheme consists of two online quiz's (completion time of 60 minutes) and one final exam (2 hours). Student of HS 3801 feel as though they were not given enough course material in order to feel prepared for either the quizzes nor the final exam. The difficulty of the in class material provided by the professor is not equivalent to the material on the exams. With a total of 43 questions that our final grades are based on, there are no additional materials, practice exams or help sessions that help the HS 3801 students feel confident in even starting to complete these exams. We feel as though the grading method in this course is unfair and we want to see a change, where materials are provided for the students so they feel prepared for the exams in the course and that homework questions provided in class, are close to the difficulty level provided on the questions on the exam.

I spent so many hours a week studying for this course and even with consistently going into prof lee's office hours, I felt completely lost when writing the final exam. By two hours i had made my way through maybe 7 or 8 questions on the exam and even with extreme preparation, I only felt confident on maybe 1 or 2 questions on the exam. There just isn't enough information provided in the course to help us out when it comes to understanding the tests!

I studied for weeks, re did all the homework cases/exercises and re did both Quiz 1 A/B and Quiz 2 A/B many many times and felt completely unprepared for the final exam (as well the quizzes) I had only completed about 6 questions in the 2 hours given. I also was completely confused on the thought questions because there was not enough information provided in class on how to even begin thinking of solving them. The prof is very nice and helped me with my questions almost every week during his office hours.. but still, I felt completely unprepared and am terrified of the grade i will be getting in this course, even though, I am a student who worked extremely hard and devoted many hours to this course.
