final grades

Based on 11 homeworks, and two exams

Homework: Dropped lowest two. Rescaled hw1 and hw2 so the average matched that of the later hw.

Exam1: Total number of exam problems: 26. Curve: add 7 to every score (this is a 27% bump), and normalize.

Exam2: Total number of exam problems: 40. Curve: add 9 to every score (this is a 23% bump), and normalize.

Adaptive weighting scheme: there are four possible sets of weights, and the one applied to each student's grades
has been chosen to maximize their grade:

HW, Exam1, Exams2&3
25, 35, 40
25, 15, 60
15, 35, 50
15, 15, 70
