Hi all.

Here are the final grades for the course (last updated May 1, 2002, 5 p.m.).

Let me explain the variables:

ALIAS = your alias or nickname
EXAM1 - EXAM5 = your grades for exams 1 - 5
DIARY = you score for the online longitudinal assignment
ATTEND = section attendance
CLASSACT = your score for class activities
HOMEWORK = your score for homeworks
ZODIAC = .03 for doing the zodiac extra credit during the last week of class
V1 - V4 = your four highest exam scores (recall that only the four highest of the five exams count) with an extra point (see below)
GRADE = numeric grade in the course (I explain below how this is computed)
LETTER = your letter grade for the course, using the standard 10% scale (i.e., 90% - 100% is an A)

How was your grade computed?

Here is the formula I used:

GRADE = [.60 * (( V1 + V2 + V3 + V4 + ZODIAC)/4 )] + [.40*((DIARY + CLASSACT + HOMEWORK + ATTEND)/4)]

Some notes about this formula:

(a) As described on the syllabus, the mean of your exams counts as 60% of your final grade; the section scores count toward the remaining 40% of your final grade.
(b) For those of you who did the zodiac extra credit during the last week, I added .03 points to your exam pool. This is mathematically equivalent to adding 3% points to one of your exams. If you did not do the zodiac extra credit, this does not hurt you (i.e., you don't lose points).
(c) I added one percentage point to everyones' exam scores, as reflected in variables V1 - V4 (not in variables EXAM1 - EXAM5). I did this to avoid rounding problems. Thus, the final grade you have is higher than it "should" be. Please do not e-mail me about borderline cases ("I have a .797 or C; will you round it to a .80 or B?"); this method was designed to give everyone an extra push.

If you have a question about your grade, please contact me (fraley@uic.edu) as soon as possible.


Have a nice summer everyone!
