Final Grades

Final grades will be based upon the total points earned on all requirements for the course.  Grades will be determined using the following percentage scale (total = 450 points)

Note:  Regular class attendance is expected of all students.  If you miss six classes (equivalent to two weeks), your final grade will be reduced one-step (e.g., a B- becomes a C+).  Missing nine or more classes (three weeks or more) will result in a two-step reduction in your final grade (e.g., an A becomes a B+).  Arriving on time is also expected.  Frequent tardiness will result in a one-step reduction in your final grade.

 A- :  90-93  C+: 78-79   D: 63-67
