CSc 340/CSc 515
Final Grades: Fall 2006

Intangibles like effort, improvement, and voluntary participation were considered for borderline cases only. "Borderline" means approximately 0.1-0.2% away from the next grade.

Explanation of statistics:

Mean: the average
Median: the "middle" score (for our class of 7, 4 are at or above the median score and 4 are at or below the median score.)
Mode: the most common score

Grades are computed on the following scale:

Undergraduate Scale Graduate Scale
  • 93+ = A
  • 90 - 92.99 = A-
  • 87 - 89.99 = B+
  • 83 - 86.99 = B
  • 80 - 82.99 = B-
  • 77 - 79.99 = C+
  • 73 - 76.99 = C
  • 70 - 72.99 = C-
  • 60 - 69.99 = D
  • -59.99 = F
  • 93+ = A
  • 90 - 92.99 = A-
  • 87 - 89.99 = B+
  • 83 - 86.99 = B
  • 80 - 82.99 = B-
  • 70 - 79.99 = C
  • -69.99 = F
How to use the WEIGHTED GRADE column: This column can tell you the maximum possible score that you can still get in the course. If the total % currently in is, say, 30%, and your score is 18%, then that means you are 12% (30-18) short of the maximum. So your maximum possible score for the entire course is 100-12 = 88% = B+. This assumes you don't lose any more points for the rest of the term (which is unrealistic for any human). So just treat it as a way to figure out what is still mathematically possible.

Hope you enjoyed the class. Happy Holidays!
