NOTE: In reporting the averages from the tests we drop the lowest scores. This is because the lowest of each type of the 3 tests will be dropped; i.e. 1/3rd (or 33.3%) of all test scores will be dropped. In comparing your average with the class average you need to compare with an average which is representative of the final average. Dropping the lowest scores before reporting the average is one way of ESTIMATING the effect of the final drops. These posted test averages are not used in any way in computing the final overall class average.

Here is that final grade scale. below 40.0 E 40.0 - 49.9 D 50.0 - 64.9 C (above 59.4 is C+) 65.0 - 79.9 B (no B-' this year, above 78.3 is B+) above 79.9 A (no A-'s this year, above 92.8 is A+) Letter grades were assigned strictly according to this scale. The highest E is 23.8; there are no D's this year, the lowest C is 51.5; the highest C is 59.5, the lowest B is 66.5; the highest B is 78.2, and the lowest A is 85.1. The smallest gap between levels is 6.9 points between C to B. You may also like to look at the Spring 2022 Class Averages.
