Final exam scores


I forgot that Sunday morning they shut down Webcourses for maintenance. So converting your 84 point exam to a 100 point equivalent is still on my to-do list.

What I eventually will be doing is:
  1. Divide your exam score by 84. This gives me your percentage. E.g., 69/84 = 0.82142857
  2. I multiply that percentage by 100. So in the example, I would get 69/84 → 82.142857.
  3. Then, to keep things simple, I round UP to the next whole number. To complete the example 69/84 → →83/100 for the final exam score conversion.
So this is why you will see some hipsy-dipsy maneuvering with rows in your My Grades page.... as soon as Webcourses comes back on.
