Correlation scattergram for PS#1

(Score vs Time Spent [hrs])

Many scores fall into a band above 75 points and spanning the entire range of times spent. This corresponds to students who ajusted the time they spent on the problem set to their skill level and the difficulty of the problem set. Good job!

There is, however, a group below these scores characterized by a linear envelope. These data correspond to students whose grades were limited by the time they spent on the problem set. There scores are all low eneough that these students scoring below 75 definitely need to put in some combination of more time and seeking additional help through tutoring/office hours. My office hours are on Tuesday afternoons from 3:45--whenever it takes.
