A significant portion of faculty in engineering,technology and science colleges give only one half of the credit to students who providenumerically wrong answers even though their procedures are complete and correct. There aremany instances where complex semi-empirical equations are needed at the beginning of thesolution. From the experience of the instructor, the majority of graduate students (taking coursescontaining several semi-empirical equations) could not obtain correct answers in closed bookexaminations.The National Council of Examiners For Engineering and Surveying (NCEES) follows the abovephilosophy (penalizing students heavily who go do not provide right answers even though theyfollow/demonstrate the correct and
