2 Wrapping-up the Exam Experience

On or before Friday 1 March, you may submit an exam wrapper¹ to make up some of your lost points. This should be a plain-text document named exam1wrap.txt containing the following sections:

1. Preparation

   Reflect on how you prepared for the exam and how effective that was. Don’t limit yourself to the days immediately before the exam; how effective were you approaches to learning the material as the semester progressed as well?

2. Errors

   List each mistake you made on the exam, and explain the correct answer. If possible, also explain why you answered incorrectly: what confused you?

   If there are questions you got right, but based on the wrong reasoning, explain those too.

3. Plans

   Wrap-up this exam experience by planning what you’ll do differently in the future.

An example template might be:

Preparation
===========

I prepared for this exam by ...

I thought this was good/bad because ...


Errors
======

I missed Q2.4. The correct answer is ... because ...


Plans
=====

To improve my learning going forward, I plan to ...

If you do not submit a wrapper, your initial exam score will stand as your exam performance. If you do, that score can only go up, not down.
