I remember the average on our final was 40%. A 55% gave me a B+

In my first year calculus class, our professor gave us a midterm, and the next class when he was going over the midterm and doing the problem on the board, he did it wrong, realized he had the wrong solution and recollected our exams to regrade them. That guy was the worst professor ever, he was this crinkly old swedish guy nobody could understand and constantly told us "Don't worry about your grades, when I was in college I got a C in [some adv. math class] and it was the best class I ever took"
