Report on the Elliptic Curves examination. Prof. E.V. Flynn.

The exam went smoothly with no problems. There were 14 students
who sat these questions (some as the half unit "Elliptic Curves", and
some as part of the unit "Analytic Number Theory and Elliptic Curves").
The marks of these students (for the best two answers) were (out of 50):
10, 22, 26, 33, 35, 35, 36, 39, 39, 41, 41, 42, 44, 45.
which as percentages were:
20, 44, 52, 66, 70, 70, 72, 78, 78, 82, 82, 84, 88, 90.
which gives an average of about 70%. Most of the class
(10 students out of 14) obtained first class marks of at least 70%.
Overall, the exam questions seemed to do a good job of spreading
the students out, and the marks correspond fairly well to my
general impression of their standard of work during the term.
Only one student was below honours standard (less than 40%).
The marks of 88%,90% were excellent performances, and both of these 
students demonstrated depth of understanding and the ability 
to think on their feet.
My feeling is that the I/IIi borderline is close to the standard 
first class raw mark of 70%. That is to say, the 10 students
with marks of 35/50 and above all clearly produced work of first class
standard. 
  The student with 33/50 also produced very good work,
and is also very near the I/IIi borderline (with one question
18/25 of first class standard and the other question 15/25 of  
IIi standard). I am relaxed as to whether this student
is considered overall first class or IIi for Elliptic Curves,
and is very much borderline in this respect. If pressed, I'd
say this script is just slightly on the IIi side of the
borderline, but only marginally.
