Final exam and overall course grades

The following should be self-explanatory, but just in case… For the final exam, there were four questions that met my < 30% answered correctly cut off for being a bad item, so I gave everyone credit for those four questions. Each multiple choice question was worth one point and the cases totaled 37 points. The scores for those are listed separately Your score on the final with the add on, expressed as a percentage is in the “w curve” column, following that is the score converted to the 30 point scale that the final was worth. The quiz column is the number of correct quiz questions you had out of the 8 we did for Chapters 10 & 12.

Following the final grades are the statistics related to the final and then a summary table with overall course grades.

The next table shows the overall summary of grades for the semester.

 

Att./Part is your attendance/participation grade, remember, this is a combination of both your attendance and level of participation.

Quiz is points compiled for the quizzes, the cut off for the full ten points was 29 of the 37 questions correct.

Total Pts. and Grade are self explanatory. If somebody who had the same number of points as you got a higher letter grade, it is due to exemplary attendance. As I said at the beginning of the semester that is the only time I do any “rounding up” of grades.

Please contact me ASAP if you believe there is an error in any of the numbers I have recorded.

Thanks for making this an enjoyable semester! I hope you all have a happy and safe summer!
