[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope not. 60/40 is far more reasonable. 70/30 is a disaster for most students. [/quote] what i don't understand is how can this be a disaster if students have numerous opportunities to retake with the possibility of scoring a 100. then all those 100s at 70% are awesome. also, a D now is a 60% whereas last year it was no lower than a 64%. Everything has been done to help students earn credits and graduate on time. [/quote] I know, right? This was supposed to help students and instead it is hurting them! They must be doing something wrong, if they are getting worse grades now than previously. It must be the students' fault that the new grading system isn't improving their grades, rather than the fault of the new grading system. Of course! Ungrateful entitled students. Definitely their fault and not the last-minute, poorly-thought-out new micromanaging grading policy. [/quote]
