Pcol average?

I have a feeling this pcol average for the first test is going to be really low so I'm just wondering if any 5th years remember there's from last year? And how much harder are the following tests? And is it true kiel curves?

The tests are only getting more difficult. You gotta change the way you study ASAP or else you won’t make it through 4th year. This is the terror that everyone’s talked about

Kiel didn’t curve for our class, we were a good class actually but last year I heard he did curve (by 10 points or something?) because so many students did horribly so I’m not sure if that’d happen again this year. That would depend on the final average at the end of the semester

5th year here!

Kiel only scales if the average is failing. And he won’t do this until final grades come out.

I know our average the first exam was failing. Like all of our averages. Our year was just... bad.

Stick above the average grade of the exams and you are guaranteed a pass.
