So now that I’ve posted up lit 2 exam grades under the CPLA grader, you should see your overall grade be updated to match what your final grade would look like (minus some of the homework that hasn’t been graded yet). The overall grade will be the MINIMUM grade that you will receive in the class; it is under my discretion to raise it if needed (I will not lower it, however).

An explanation to how the overall grading works:

• 2.-0-4.0 = This is the minimum grade you will receive, aka you have 600+ points of homework and have passed both lit exams.
• 1.9 or less = You may have done well on the tests, but you cannot pass the class unless you have at least 600 points in the class. This is non-negotiable.
• 1.0X – This means that you have gotten an “incomplete” due to test grades (less than 80% on any one lit exam). You are allowed one retake per test – do NOT RUSH to get a retake though, you have up until the end of next quarter (end of Spring 2011) to get this taken (so make sure to study up). Once you take it, LET ME KNOW by email so I can update your grade. If you do not retake the exam by the end of next quarter or do not pass on your retake, your grade will be a 1.0.
