Course Grades for Math 309, Fall 2014 Your scores for WebWorK, the written homework, and the exams will be used to determine your grade for the course. WWSCORE = WebWork Score:                        10 %      (two lowest (%) WebWorK scores are dropped) HWSCORE = Handgraded Homework Score:   20 %      (two lowest (%) HW scores are dropped) E1 = Exam 1 Score:        20 % E2 = Exam 2 Score:        20 % F   = Final Exam Score:  30 %   ( If F is larger than E1 or E2, then F will replace the smaller of E1 and E2.  But this applies only if you have actually taken both E1 and E1 -- that is, you can't choose to skip an exam, get a 0, and then expect the final to replace the 0.) Your letter grade for the course will be based on your Total Score T: T = 0.10 * WWSCORE  +  0.20 * HWSCORE  +  0.20 * E1  +  0.20 * E2  + 0.30 * F           I won't create a scale for converting T into a letter grade until the end of the course.  However, the following "floors" are           guaranteed:  90-100   A  (possibly +/-)  80-89     B  (possibly +/-)  65-79     C  (possibly +/-)  50-64     D < 50        F           It is possible that the final grading scale will be a little more generous, but maybe not.      If you are registered for the pass/fail grading option, then your T score will need to be at the level of  C- or better to earn a "pass."
