Grades:

95-100+% = A

90-93% = A-

87-89% = B+

83-86% = B

80-82% = B-

77-79% = C+

73-76% = C

70-72% = C-

Grade points are not rounded up: for example, cumulative point scores of 89.5 receive a grade of B+. I neither grade on a curve nor use a `quota system'; although it is a rough rule of thumb that in elective graduate courses in this department there will be one A awarded for every three B's. Additional ungraded assignments might be required. This homework may be in the form of readings or worksheets to help you prepare for assignments.

I must submit grades by 9:00 a.m. on December 19. You may also view your online grade report through UTEID
