Overall grading policy
4 tests --18% each
Final exam --20-24%
The remaining 4-8% will be for zybook activity on chapters BEFORE
the chapter is covered in class. ( The uncertainty is because it is not
clear whether zybooks will extend its availability past March).

Grade distribution
Grades are NOT based on absolute test scores.
Grades will be based on your rank in class, with grade cutoffs
placed at score gaps. After the final,
I expect that approximately
--20% of the class would get an A
--66% will get B or above
--80% will get a C or above
(I reserve the right to be more lenient)
Grade communication
After each test, your rank in class, based on points
earned in tests so far, will be communicated via UF canvas e-learning.
After the 3rd test, you will know a tentative
letter grade.
