As with the pop quizzes, I scored each answer on a 4-point scale, then added up the results. The high score in the class was 42 out of a possible 48 (before extra credit) again, which I used as the 100% mark. The median score was B. Here’s how the grade scale worked out:
| Grade | minimum points | distribution |
| A+ | 42 | |
| A | 39.8 | 20% |
| A- | 37.8 | |
| B+ | 34.8 | |
| B | 30.3 | 55% |
| B- | 27.3 | |
| C+ | 24.3 | |
| C | 19.8 | 25% |
| C- | 16.8 | |
| D+ | 13.8 | |
| D | 9.3 | 0% |
| D- | 6.3 | |
| F | 0 |
If you compare it to the last quiz, you can see some movement from D to C and movement from C to B: definite shift up. If you want your test grades before you hand in your final, email me. Otherwise, I’ll have the tests ready to hand back when you hand in the final essays. Now, on to grade the book reviews!
