Got 4% on my first (and only) calc midterm. I statistically should have gotten a better grade by randomly picking multiple choice questions and leaving everything else blank… Sadly it didn’t provide anything to the rest of my class and I had actually studied for it.

Your calc exam was multiple choice?

  They say leave the rest blank, so there was some multiple choice questions, which is fairly normal. Well, at least I think it is, all the maths tests ive done have had at least a few multiple choice qs (UK)

  Well not the whole thing. Maybe a third of the questions or something like that.

  Depending on the question, many answers in calculus are:
  
  1
  
  2
  
  0
  
  invalid
  
  This is especially true if they don’t let you have a calculator.

    Maybe I’m old and come from a time before calculators could do integrals and derivatives, but I never needed a calculator for calculus as it would not have helped in any way.
