Exam scoring
Concordia's IT department provides services to mark multiple choice examinations consisting of up to 120 questions with a choice of ten possible answers per question, or up to 180 questions with a choice of five possible replies. Exams will be returned to the professor with detailed results via Carrefour.
Also available at IITS are services to process and compile statistics from student research surveys. All forms and documentation can be obtained from IITS in LB 800 (Sir George Williams Campus) or CC 206 (Loyola Campus).
Related policy: As noted in the Undergraduate Calendar (16.3.9): instructors are responsible for the preservation of course work [which includes tests, examinations, essays and other work that has contributed to the grading of a course] that has not been returned to students as follows: until December 31st of the next calendar year for Fall term courses: until April 30th of the next calendar year for Fall/Winter and Winter-term courses; and until August 31st of the next calendar year for Summer-term courses.
