ABC/NR for ASEs during IAP. That's how it was for my 18.06 ASE

and remember that bio/chem ASEs are only offered in the spring

5.112 Stuff

Hey guys...if you want some practice exams and problem sets from 5.112, go to

http://web.mit.edu/~eauvero/Public

and download 5.112 Stuff.zip. I know OCW doesn't have many specimen exams and problem sets posted for 5.111 and 5.112, and I think Stellar locks people out of the course websites for both classes. 5.112 is in short, a more thorough version of 5.111 giving a deeper introduction to chemistry. Sure some may think that 5.112 material won't be on the ASE. But this is MIT and you should expect some tricks. I remember some stuff on the 5.111 ASE that was covered in 5.112. Hope this helps...

I have been wondering for some time but, in general, how do the numbers work out? I'm kinda confused how everyone says that passing is a "C." Is it done by standard deviations? Because I'm looking around for something more of a "most students at MIT who take the class and got a C got roughly X% of the points on this exam" type of thing. Going off the exams on OCW (for 8.02 and 18.02), is a C around 80% of the points?
