Quiz Score Calculation
Although all the quizzes may have a different number of available points, your average percentage score is what is used to determine your grade. For example, suppose your quiz scores are the following:
| Points | Percentage | Quiz Grade Average |
|---|---|---|
| 6/7 | 86% | 86% |
| 10/11 | 91% | 88.5% |
| 20/20 | 100% | 92.3% |
Note that the "Quiz Grade Average" is computed as (86 + 91 + 100)/3 = 92.3%.
Missed Quizzes
There will be no make up quizzes. Register to take your quiz earlier rather than later to insure you can reserve a time slot. If you miss a quiz, you will be given your semester's average quiz score minus a penalty, as follows:
| Number of Missed Quizzes | Missed Quiz Score |
|---|---|
| Missed Quiz 1 Score | Semester Quiz Average - 20% |
| Missed Quiz 2 Score | Semester Quiz Average - 30% |
| Missed Quiz 3 Score | Semester Quiz Average - 40% |
For example, if you miss quiz 4, and your semester quiz average is 92.3% (for all quizzes you attended), you will receive an assigned grade of 72.3% (92.3% - 20% = 72.3%) for your missing quiz 4, making your semester quiz average 87.3%. If you also miss quiz 5, you will receive an assigned grade of 57.3% (87.3% - 30%) for your second missing quiz, making your semester quiz average 81.3%.
