This table shows the general convention I use to translate letter grades into percentages. E.g. if you get a letter grade of A- the score entered will be 91.7%
Percentages on the white lines between letter grades are the low border for the grade above. E.g. the low border for A- is 90%, so if your overall score in the class is 90% you will get an A- but if you score 89.9%, that's a B+.
- Note
- The percentages are meaningless in themselves - they are just a trick to allow grade calcuation by spreadsheet.
- This scheme applies to work that would typically get a letter grade - papers, presentations, etc.
- This scheme may not apply directly to quizzes with numerical scores.
- It is far better to try and fail than not to try at all.

A good-faith effort is WAY better than not submitting. |
