GRADING (both classes)

A 92-100%
B 82-91%
C 70-81%
D 60-69%
F < 60%

Note:

  1. decimals of 0.5 and above are rounded up (e.g. 91.5 = 92; 91.4 = 91)
  2. grades within 1-2% of each break point are subject to + or - grades
  3. all "A" grades are "A's" (I don't typically give A- because I can't give an A +)
  4. standards for A and B grades are slightly higher than in many other OSU classes simply because you have several opportunities to take each lab exam.
