Questions that less than half the class answered correctly: 6, 11, 12,
13, 21, 26, 27, 28, 32, 35, 39, 40, 42, 43, 45, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52,
53, 54
Questions that less than one-fourth of the class answered correctly:
6, 13, 47
All questions, including the extra credit, counted as two percentage
points, and bubbling in your name correctly was worth one percentage point.
So the highest score possible (pre-adjustment) would have been 109%.
Class average (pre-adjustment): 60.3%
That average is so low that an adjustment is called for. The average
on the second exam was 73%, which is a lot more like it. So, I am multiplying
everyone's score by 1.21 (the technical term for this is a scalar adjustment),
so that we get:
Class average (post-adjustment): 73%
High score: 119.8%
| Grade | Score (post-adjustment) | Number of students |
| A | 90-100+% | [to be entered later] |
| B | 80-89% | |
| C | 65-79% | |
| D | 50-64% | |
| E | 0-49% |
