Approximately the upper third of cach grade bracket will be assigned a plus and the lower third a minus. Final grades are computed by frst finding the average score in exch category deseribed in the table below on the right, All scores are normalized to a scale of O to 100 before being averaged. ‘The average scare for each category {s then used to compute the weighted average according to the weights in the table below on the right. —Geade 96 of Total Poinss Category % of Final Grade x 30-1008 B 80-89% x 056 Final 3596 c 70-79% Final 2% D 60-69% Midterm 23% F Below 59% ticipation ‘Technical Proficiency: Technical proficiency in programming and software engineering should correspond to the pretequisite(s) of the course.
