Information about your final grade:
PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTINUING:
The final course
grades, posted below, already include two “adjustments” both of which work in
your favor. First, we have
instituted a type of “curve” such that the grade cutoffs as printed in the
syllabus (A+ = 97%-100%, etc.) are based on an average of the two highest point
totals actually obtained in the class (Average = 199), rather than the
highest possible score (206). Thus, we have in essence added 7 points to
everyone’s score. Second, we
rounded up your research points, such that (for example) 4.5 credits are
counted as 5.0.
In light of these
two adjustments, we will not be able to make any further individual
“adjustments” to your grade. In particular, we will not be able to honor individual
requests to bump your letter grade higher in the case of a “near miss” to the
next highest letter grade. You know from this course how painful counterfactual
thinking can be (e.g. gee, if I had only gotten ONE point higher….”),
but we have to draw the grade cutoff somewhere! (If you think about it, no
matter where you draw the line, there will ALWAYS be near misses.) Thus, please
do not email either the TA or Dr. Lambert with such requests, as we will not
able to accommodate them out of fairness to the rest of the students. Thank you for your understanding.
