Results of POCAT, Summer '17 (BS-CIS)

Note: The version of the test used for the BS-CIS students was the same as the one for BS-CSE majors in Su '17. There were 22 questions in this version of the test, many of which were based on the required courses; the ones that were based on electives had an option "I have not taken the course" that students were asked to pick if they had not taken the course. In addition, there were two questions about the test, the first about the length of the test ["too long", "too short", or "just right" being answers (a), (b), (c) respectively], the second about the difficulty of the test ["too difficult", "too easy", or "just right" being answers (a), (b), (c) respectively]. Most students felt the test was the right length and difficulty; the answers to these questions are not included in the tables below.

Since the number of students in this group is small, the results are reported in a single table below. The table is organized by student code. The first column lists the code of each student. Following this are columns, one for each question on the test; the answer picked by each student for that question is listed; the answer is in boldface if it is correct. The last column is a summary column that specifies the percentage of questions that each student answered correctly.
