Grades

Computation of grades

If your grade on the final exam is less than 45%, then your grade in the course will be your grade on the final exam. If your grade on the final exam is at least 45%, then your grade in the course will be calculated according to the following scheme.

  • Assignments: 15%
  • Quizzes: 5%
  • Midterm: 30%
  • Final exam: 50%

In the computation of the assignments portion of your grade, your lowest assignment mark will be dropped. Similarly, in the computation of the quizzes portion of your grade, your lowest quiz mark will be dropped.

Midterm exams cannot be rescheduled. If you miss the midterm exam for a legitimate (properly documented) reason, its weight will be added to the weight of the final exam in the computation of your course grade.
