Score distribution for test 1

The scale below is based on the following descriptive statistics:

average = 29.2 (out of 40 possible points--73%)
median = 29.5 (73.8%)
mode = 30 (75%)
standard deviation = 5.34 (13.3%)

The following is an approximate grade scale:

A: 34.5 and higher
B: 29 - 34
C: 23.5 - 28.5
D: 18 - 23
F: 17.5 and lower

Remember, I do not record letter grades for tests. I only keep record of your score. The scale will help you determine how "strong" or "weak" you are in the grade scale. A 34 is a stronger B than a 29. So to ultimately work toward a higher overall grade you will need to work harder for an A if you have a 29 vs. a 34.
