Grading Scale and Breakdown
Below you will find my grading scale. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. I firmly believe that my students are capable of challenging themselves, and I feel that my grading scale reflects that. An A is certainly attainable - but it will also require dedication and work in order to achieve it.
A     95.4% - 100% A-    93.4% - 95.3% B+    91.4% - 93.3% B     88.4% - 91.3% B-     86.4% - 88.3% C+     84.4% - 86.3% C     81.4% - 84.3% C-     79.4% - 81.3% D+     77.4% - 79.3% D     73.4% - 77.3% D-     69.4% - 73.3% F     0% - 69.3%
