For
your final grade, your accumulated point total will be divided by 700 and
the percentage for assigning letter grades is as follows [and please note
this is using the new A - A/B - B - B/C - C, etc grading scale]:
*Note*
please understand - it takes 651 points to earn an "A"; 616 points to earn
an "A/B", etc 650 or 615 are close [to "A" or "A/B" respectively] but
no cigar - the course is designed for your success - but you must do your
part - and we never "round up" at the end of the semester.
