GRADING SYSTEM

Lecture Rating Scale:

▪ Attendance 10% 1.00 = 96.7 – 100.00
1.25 = 93.4 – 96.6
▪ Class Participation 15% 1.50 = 90.1 – 93.3
1.75 = 86.7 – 90.0
▪ Quizzes/Long Test 15% 2.00 = 83.4 – 86.6
▪ Project 30% 2.25 = 80.1 – 83.3
2.50 = 76.7 – 80.0
▪ Major Exams 30% 2.75 = 73.4 – 76.6
3.00 = 70.0 – 73.3 (Passing Grade)
100% 4.00 = 50.0 – 69.9 (Conditional)

V01-2018-07-17
 5.00 = Below (Failed)

CLASS POLICIES
