Grades

Your course grade will be a weighed mean of
  • your homework average (15%)

  • the three in-class exam scores (20% each)

  • your final exam score (25%)

None of the test or homework grades will be dropped. I will use the following grade scale:


Grade

Percentage Range

A

90 – 100%

B

80 – 90 %

C

70 – 80%

D

60 – 70%

F

below 60 %


Your actual grade may be slightly different (notice I have not put any plus or minus grades in) depending on how everyone else does.


Posting of grades (homework, tests, course grade)

To help you keep track of your academic achievement, and to eliminate potential errors in the recording of your grades, I will post your homework and test scores (including final exam score) and your course grade on the following Website:
