Comment on scores for test 1

In both sections of 122 (section 004 and section 009), the average score and the median score were above 80%. So use the default scale in the syllabus (90-100 is an A, 80-89.9 is a B, etc.) to determine the "grade".

Please keep in mind, I do not enter a letter grade into the grade book. I enter the score. The only "true" grade you get is the final grade at the end of the semester. (I do turn in midterm grades for those with a target grade of D or F.)

To calculate your percentage score, it depends on which section you're in.

MW (004), take your raw score and divide by 43, then multiply by 100.

TR (009), take your raw score and divide by 44, then multiply by 100.

Nice work on the first test. But let me issue this warning: the material does not get any easier. Some people find they do well on the first test then take it as a signal to slack. Then they slack their way to a C grade next time. Don't let that happen to you.
