The answers you have written look correct to me. I cannot find anything that looks questionable or out of the ordinary. I agree with you, that these FR questions are shockingly easy, and that lots of guidance and hints are provided to the students. Without a doubt, I feel disappointed that the bar has been lowered. I will be curious to see the Grade Distributions. Unless the MC section was really difficult, I would not be surprised if the scores were something like this:
5 – 20%
4 – 20%
3 – 25%
2 – 20%
1 – 15%
If so, it would be the first time in my recent memory that the percentage of students scoring 3 or better was higher than 60%.
