after grading the first homework Phys 451 Remarks from the TA after grading the first homework Simplify your answers to their simplest forms. Don't leave it like x=(1/3-1/5)^(1/2) or x=1-Sigma, while you already have a value for Sigma. 2. Don't make your "rough sketch" too rough. Label your axes, and draw the curve nicely. Be a little more professional than the Physics 121 students. 3. Some simple calculus and graphs can be done by hand, such as a standard Gaussian. Don't rely entirely on Mathematica. 4. Don't write too compactly. Leaving enough space in your writing not only benefits the TA but also helps yourself when you go back and check. 5. Write your CID instead of your name.
