Math 111 - Winter 2008 - Grade Record

EXPLANATION OF FINAL GRADE COMPUTATION

Here is an explanation of how your final grade will be calculated: Think of the course as a total of 100 points.

Category	Weight	Your percentage	Your score
Test Prep	2	Depends on the number of test prep days you missed	= 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0
Homework	10	YOUR HOMEWORK PERCENTAGE	=YOUR HOMEWORK SCORE
Activities	10	YOUR ACTIVITIES PERCENTAGE	=YOUR ACTIVITIES SCORE
Exam 1	23	YOUR EXAM 1 PERCENTAGE	=YOUR EXAM 1 SCORE
Exam 2	23	YOUR EXAM 2 PERCENTAGE	=YOUR EXAM 2 SCORE
Final Exam	32	YOUR FINAL EXAM PERCENTAGE	=YOUR FINAL EXAM SCORE
TOTAL	100		YOUR TOTAL OUT OF 100

YOUR COURSE PERCENTAGE = YOUR TOTAL

This is the percentage that I look for on the grade scale to give you your grade.

TEST PREP If you miss one test prep day, you still received full test prep credit. Missing more than this, will lose you points in increments of 0.5.

HOMEWORK For your final homework score, we eliminate the lowest scores.

YOUR HOMEWORK PERCENTAGE = (HIGHEST 6 HOMEWORK SCORES) / 90 * 100 PERCENT

ACTIVITIES For your final activity score, we eliminate the lowest scores.

YOUR ACTIVITIES PERCENTAGE = (HIGHEST 6 ACTIVITY SCORES) / 120 * 100 PERCENT

EXAM The first and second exams are each weighted as 23 points (see your syllabus).

YOUR EXAM PERCENTAGE = (YOUR EXAM SCORE) / 50 * 100 PERCENT

FINAL EXAM The final exam is weighted at 32 points (see your syllabus).

YOUR FINAL EXAM PERCENTAGE = (YOUR EXAM SCORE) PERCENT
