Synoptics II: Final Grades

Your grades are posted on the green board at the entrance of the Arnoldus Library.
You can also claim your blue books (quizzes and final exam) at the circulation desk of AL.
Or you can click here to check your grades.

-----------------
Computation: your final grade was computed this way:

35% Quizzes*
25% Midterm
30% Final+
10% Attendance and participation

*Quizzes: There were 9 quizzes in all; but divided by 8 only because your lowest quiz grade , e.g. when you were absent, was not counted. Thus, you have at least one zero [0] mark, don’t be surprised, that was your lowest score which was cancelled.

+ Final Exam:  Perfect score is 50 points = 100%; 20 points = 70%
