This scale has been adjusted to take into account the cutoffs I announced
in class for exams 2 and 3.
Compute your grade: To calculate your total score, compute each
component as a percentage, then combine them using the weights above
(eg. 16(HW%) + 4(Q%) + 2(FR%) + 18(X1%) + 18(X2%) + 18(X3%) + 24(F%)
gives your total score out of 100). So far 76 percent of your grade has
been determined. Combine all but the last term, and multiply by 100/76 to
estimate your current grade.
