I remember a friend in the aerospace engineering department told me he made an 8 on an exam and still passed after the curve.
As an aerospace engineering major from Georgia Tech, I can confirm the exact same thing at Ga Tech.
Here's to partial credit and curves (and making sure the curve "anchor" never withdraws from your class)!
