[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a prof I always round up. Guess that's just me.[/quote] No, I’m a 30-year prof & I round up too. The people who think there is a significant difference between 89.5 & 90 are the same sort of too-trusting-in-statistics twits who think a college US News ranks #15 is necessarily appreciably better than one ranked #20. [/quote] It kind of depends on the distribution of grades, right? There has to be some line. Ideally, there is a clear break in the grade distribution, but if there isn't, there is always going to be one student who is less than a half point from getting a higher grade. [/quote]
