================================= Exam 1 statistics ================================= (reported on 2/8/2018 N = 50 Average = 123 Stand Deviation= 37 Median = 123 Min range = 0-50 Max range = 195-200 ================================= ================================= Exam 2 statistics ================================= (reported on 3/19/2018) N = 50 Average = 249 Stand Deviation= 50 Median = 248 Min range = 0-170 Max range = 323-333 ================================= Exam 3 statistics ================================= (reported on 5/10/2018 N = 50 Average = 160 Stand Deviation= 58 Median = 160 Max range = 300-333 Min range = 0-50 As of now, class average is 658 pts and standard deviation 142. This would become approximately the border between a B and a C+. RULE 1. Exams at 25% of 333 = 83.25 receive an automatic F per Syllabus(Handout 1) RULE 2. Students are then groupped 'curve like' per half of standard deviation (~70-90pts). Definitions Definitions =========== =========== Average = Sum of grades divided by number of exams Stand Deviation = Shows dispersion of grades. Roughly, 2/3 of the grades are within 37 +/- 12 , and 95% within 37 +/- 2*12 if ave is 37 and std 12 Median = Half of the students got that much or less (and half, more than that).
