Detailed Grading Scale


To calculate a grade value, simply find the grade (e.g. B-) and the Assignment identifier (e.g. Participation) to get a numerical value (in this case, 0.135). Add all of your grade number values together and you have a grade based on a 4.0 scale.

N.B. Not all Assignments are for all classes; check your Syllabus.
