Curve

Grade % z-score
A 88 80
B 78 63
C 69 43
D 59 30
F below 58 29 or below

We will be using the normal (z) scores curve for the class. Note from the percentages that the z-score curve is much more favorable.

Please note that the curve is approximate and can change slightly as students drop the class. Also note that the percentage-based curve is there simply to indicate where your grade would be if I used strict-percentage curve.

Distribution of scores

Correlation between homework total and exam one score

r2 = 0.42, so that 42 percent of the variation in exam one score is predicted by homework scores.
