Your Grade

The final course grades will be determined with the following weights:

iClicker: 5%

Homework: 15%

Recitations: 10% (lowest will be dropped)

Tests: 35%

Final Exam: 35%

A MINIMUM OF 50% OF TOTAL HOMEWORK POINTS IS REQUIRED FOR A PASSING GRADE IN THE COURSE.

The scale for final letter grades will ultimately be determined by the overall class performance. However, any student who earns 85% of all possible points can expect to receive an A of some type (A-, A, or A+); students who earn 70-85% of all possible points can expect to receive some type of B, and students who earn 50-70% of all possible points can expect to receive a C or C+. Don't depend solely on your instructors to figure your grade correctly before the end of the semester.
