A very interesting grading system
Just came back from a Cal vs Michigan State football (American) game. Really great experience. Cheered all the time. Partially lost my voice.
A look at my Physics 7A grading system:
20% 1st Midterm
20% 2nd Midterm
40% Final Exam
15% Homework
5% Laboratories, discussions, quizzes
Math 53:
20% Homework + Quizzes
20% 1st Midterm
20% 2nd Midterm
40% Final
EE20N (Electrical Engineering course):
10% Homework
10% Labs
10% Quizzes
20% Exam 1
20% Exam 2
20% Exam 3
0% Final (haha)
CS61A (Computer Science- darn so far I don’t understand much of what the Professor is talking about in the previous lecture)
3 x 40 = 120 3 Midterms
70 Final
15 x 2 = 30 15 Homeworks
15, 15, 25, 25 = 80, 4 Projects
A+ 283 - 300
A 276 - 282
A- 269 - 275
B+ 253 - 268
B 237 - 252
etc.
The really interesting one that I want to show you people is this:
Physics 7B
This professor (Andrew Charman) wrote out a 24 page course introduction for all of us. (!!!!)
Let’s take a peek inside the 24-page notes:

G night people. Time to study.




@_@ Your Physics 7B is… scary. Do you understand how it works? Hahaha I sure hope mine is less complicated. =p
You seem to be having a terrific time in Berkeley though. We should meet up… at least during the Big Game!! =p
Haha, sounds like the weighting of the marks for 7B will depend on how you do during the exams, shifting to help you with the grade?
Don’t tell me you went through all the syllabus. I will go ZzzZZzzzzz!
