Hi!
I wonder if there are long delays for getting the labs corrected now
and if the extended deadline (when it shows up in Fire) will be for
submitting or for having it corrected and passed?
The reason for my concern is that I haven't yet gotten any feedback on
lab 3 that I submitted before the deadline on last monday, That's soon
a whole week ago and even if the final deadline for getting the lab
corrected gets extended until sunday, I'm afraid that if I get a
return and resubmit the lab and it takes this long time to correct as
now, it might not be corrected and passed before the extended
deadline.
(My earlier lab submissions have been corrected much faster by the way)

Hello Mathias,

The extended deadline (now Sunday 20) is for submissions. It can take some time to get the labs graded after that, but this will be done in parallel with exam grading so that we can report the final marks.

We try to grade the first submissions within a few days form the deadline, whereas second submissions can take a longer time. However, there are situations where the graders are busy with even more urgent things (such as other courses), and then the service can be delayed. I'm very sorry for that. But everyone is guaranteed to get a second chance with all their labs.

With best regards

  Aarne.
