*Exams can be converted to weighted points by multiplying points achieved by the proper weight:
Exam I --
Points Achieved x .60 = weighted points

Exam II and Final --
Points Achieved x .80 = weighted points

All Returns amd Cases recieve full weight--
Return I x 1 = weighted points

Total points used for assigning grades will be the sum of the highest score attained on each graded assignment. It is not expected
that the total weighted points achieved will necessarily be 100. Past experience has shown that the total points used to
assign grades has been 91-95.
