I took the test today, and I got 38/66 with 7 three point questions ungraded yet. I'm confident on my answers, so I think I'll get 59/66, which is around 90%. It may seem like a bad test score to some, but we get to do test corrections for the portion that has already been graded, getting 0.25 of a point for each question we fix, and the test is curved. National averages for these tests usually lie around 40%, according to the teacher so I think I'm fine.

A worry I have is that the curve will be higher than normal because of cheating. Canvas tracks if you leave the tab during a quiz, and what tabs you open during the quiz, but you can just use a separate device to search up the answers. Another alternative could be one person going in and screen recording all the questions, which would give a bunch of people time to search the answers before they start the test. So if we see a bunch of people getting 100s, than I'm screwed. Although maybe the teacher will cross-reference old test scores and see if it matches up.

I wonder what's going to happen in our art classes—since we're getting only two weeks of school, how will we finish our assignments? Luckily, for me, I've mostly finished my 3D Design project, and since I thought all of the given assignments were due last quarter in ceramics I have quite a bit of practice with the next assignment. I think our film teacher might start up our projects again, so I probably should go check on that.

Bye!
