Tips for Homework submissions

A reminder about the HW and grading:

  • The grading on each individual HW might have a different total, but the points for each HW will be the same.
  • Your lowest normalized HW score will be dropped, and your HW score will be based on all your other HWs.
  • A reminder: you can have one HW late during the course with no explanation needed. You will then get a 72 hour extension on those HWs. HWs submitted later than that will not be graded.

Finally, here are some requests from the graders! Following these instructions will help you avoid unneccessarily losing points.

  1. Assigning pages to the correct solution in Gradescope helps us grade efficiently and ensures you receive accurate feedback. With over 50 submissions to review, this step is crucial. Assign your pages properly.
  2. If submitting handwritten solutions, write clearly—unclear handwriting can result in reduced marks even for correct answers. You are encouraged to learn math typesetting with LaTeX (e.g., Overleaf).
  3. Please scan your handwritten solutions properly! PDF format is preferred over an image. If we can’t read it, we can’t grade it.
  4. You are encouraged to talk to your classmates and help each other. If you are facing an issue, like not being able to find the latest edition of a book, please talk to your classmates. For that, you need to start working on the HW earlier. Last-minute notices or requests will not be entertained in the future.
