Grading system

The letter grade is given as a function of the results obtained in

  1. Quizes (15 %)
  2. Exams (55 %)

    3. (three exams, first 15 %, second and third 20 %)

  3. Final Exam (30 %)
  4. Additional projects (up to 15 %)

As an example see the grading system from Phys. 101 (Fall 2000)
