This table shows the general convention I use to translate letter grades into percentages. Borderline percentages are also shown.
- 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, even if disasterous, is way better than not submitting. |
