Grading Policy. Grades are based on the following: your two best scores on three in-class
exams (≈ 50% ), the final exam (≈ 25% ), and WeBWorK assignments (≈ 25% ). In
particular this means that webwork weighs as much as any exam in the final
grade, so be sure to complete it on time and regularly.
Grading Scale. You will be graded on 100 points. The average of the semester of all
these grades will be used to give you your overall grade as a letter following this scale:
