I am currently taking a very tough class and want to know where I stand if there is to be a curve.
Class size: 7 students
The current running average of the class is 35.92 and median is 36.87.
My running average is a 50.69.
The grade break down is:
exam 1: 25%
exam 2: 25%
final: 25%
HW: 25%
We have not taken the final yet so she has calculated our running avg as follows:
test 1: 33%
test 2: 33%
hw: 33%
How am I doing and what would I need to score on the final to at least get a c?
Solution
if you have 50.69 with only 3 notes that are 99% (33+33+33)
so we calculate the average for 4 grade sthat will be
50.69----99%
x---75% ( 95% because you only have 3 grades that you know for this moment)
x = 38.40
and you only have 25% and I dont know if c in EEUU is a 60 or 70
but if you score a 10 in your final that will be 25%
so in total you will have 38.40 + 25 = 63.4
you need to score at least a 10 to pass with 63.4
if you would like to pass with 60 that will be
60 - 38.40 = 21.6
x----------21.6
10-------25
x = 8.64
you need to score at least of 8.64 to get a c
