1. Summary and Curve
Last update: 5/7/2008
The summary will be updated occasionally, particularly after exams and when TA's turn in new lab report grades. The normalization average and standard deviation will not be determined for each section until after the final exam. Until then, each section is arbitrarily normalized to a 70% average and 15% standard deviation. The summary statistics such as GPA, grade distribution and class curve are only rough estimates. These values with not be absolutely determined until all grades are entered after the final exam.
2. Lab Report Normalization Curve
The lab report average was normalized to a 70% for the section with the lowest combined average of Exam 1, Exam 2, Practical Exam and Final Exam. The lab report average was normalized to 80% for the section with the highest combined average of Exam 1, Exam 2, Practical Exam and Final Exam. All other sections were fitted to the resulting curve according to their combined exam average.
