The reason for saying ROUGHLY is that I reserve the right to
make minor adjustments (UPwards or DOWNwards) to each cut-off
as necessary to avoid discriminating between students on the
basis of very small differences in scores. For example, if
student scores in increasing order are as follows:
..., m+0.244s, m+0.246s, m+0.248s, m+0.248s, m+0.251s, m+0.66s, ...
then the student scoring m+0.251s gets a C (or C+) and not a B
(or B-) even though the score is greater than m+0.25s.
