Semester Long Project Bonuses and Penalties

The following bonuses and penalties will be added to and subtracted from the semester long project:

Item% bonus or penalty
Early submission of project+10%
Completion of BDR project (line route)+3%
Completion of BDR project (roof route)+10%
Completion of BDR project (perimeter route)+3%
Completion of BDR project (tunnel route)+6%
Completion of BDR project (new route)+10%
Retrieval of BDR ball (any route)+10%
Completion of RDS project+10%
Completion of ISAR project+10%
Completion of Train Guidance project+10%
Completion of Supermarket project+3%
Each business day project is late-10%, up to -100%

The project is due the day of the final presentation. The project is considered late after that time. Note that after 10 business days, the project grade will be a zero.

For example, if you do an early submission of a BDR that uses the tunnel and the project is scored as an 80, your semester long project grade will be 80(the base)+10(early submission)+6(tunnel route), for a total grade of 96.
