I think it does matter how they're scored.

F9mbmwmcF9wYWdlPTE*&p_li=&p_topview=1
leads me to believe that the Q&A section is graded as part of the lab (part
of the 100 points)

this makes me thing its graded separately
I'm not worried about the content or the formatting of the questions. I
wanna know if i'm going to walk in to 5 short answer questions worth 4
points each, i'd find that hard to believe. but if its graded with the exam
and you have to pass it to pass the entire exam.... I dont know i guess I'll
find out either way, but... its unnerving
