Regrades
You have the right of appeal for grading on all tests; however, an appeal (except for addition errors) covers the entire test,
and may result in an unfavorable judgment on another problem. You have one week from the time the tests are returned to make appeals,
including addition errors on your score. Check it over carefully when you get it. Appeals must be made in writing and turned in to the TA.
Grades
A final overall percentage score will be calculated based on the weighted average (weights as specified above) of the scores
earned on exams and quizzes.
This percentage score will be used to determine a final letter grade as follows:
| 90%-100% |
A |
| 80%-90% |
B |
| 65%-80% |
C |
| 50%-65% |
D |
| <50% |
F |
Pluses and minuses will be attached to the letter grades as the instructor deems appropriate.
