Grading Standards

The table below shows the standard for grading used in this class.

To be explicit, when averaging grades for the semester, we will round off to two decimal places. The resultant number must equal the lower number in a grade range to reach the minimum necessary to get that letter grade. A 94.99 is a P, a 95.00 is an H, for example.
