CompSci 161 Regrade Policy - Winter 2012 (Dillencourt)

• Midterm 1: Friday, February 17, 2:00PM (start of lecture)
• Midterm 2: Friday, March 16, 2:00PM (start of lecture)

1. A list of the problems you want regraded (or other items you want addressed, for example if your score was added incorrectly.)
2. For each item in the above list, a coherent statement of what you think the grading error was.
3. A signed, dated, statement, saying: "I have not altered this exam between receiving it and submitting this regrade request, except for [list all exceptions]."

• The deadline for submitting a regrade will be strictly enforced. Late regrade requests will not be accepted unless there are extraordinary extenuating circumstances.
• Please prepared regrade requests carefully. If your regrade does not substantially follow the above format, or if your request is unclear or poorly written, you may not receive any additional points, irrespective of the merit of your request.
• Regrading can lower your exam score. We will look very carefully at all problems you ask us to regrade. If in the process of regrading your exam we discover other grading mistakes on other problems, we will correct these as well. So it is possible that your exam score could be lowered as a result of submitting it for a regrade.
• Please do not submit frivolous requests. If you submit a long list of questions to be regraded and the first few requests strike us as frivolous, we will ignore the remaining ones.
• We do not make any guarantees about how long it will take to process your regrade request. So if you submit a regrade request and want a copy of your answer sheet to study from, we recommend that you keep a photocopy of your answer sheet.
• Please keep in mind that "tampering with an examination after it has been corrected, then returning it for more credit" is an act of academic dishonesty. For more complete information about academic honesty policies, consult the UCI Academic Senate Policy on Academic Honesty .
