It also offered the opportunity to use the fulldouble-period for the administration of exams, minimizing the effect of time constraints on examperformance.Borrowing from Sangelkar’s implementation, the grading scheme shown in Table 1 was used forthe five in-class exams administered to the mastery sections. The exam first administered to allmastery students for each set of concepts was assessed problem-by-problem as either “A” levelwork (correct or almost correct) or “try again” (retake or “R”). Students only re-took problems(concepts) for which they had not demonstrated the requisite level of competency. Subsequentproblems were drawn from the same concept area but of a lower
